Medical Disputes in Korea: Keep Records and Get Advice

Get needed medical care first. For a dispute, keep a clear record and ask the appropriate organization about your options.

Keep evidence

  • Save records, consent forms, estimates, receipts and dated messages.
  • Write a timeline of treatment, symptoms and the response you received.

Choose the right route

  • Ask K-Medi about medical dispute counseling, eligibility, documents and fees.
  • Ask Medical Korea where to raise a service complaint or a concern about patient recruitment.

Check before agreeing

  • Ask about deadlines, translation and representation requirements for your case.
  • Read any proposed settlement before signing. Counseling or mediation does not guarantee compensation.
