Full Screening in the Philippines: What it covers, What it costs, and Why 50 tests beat a "Basic" Check-Up
September 3, 2026 • 7 MIN READ
If you've searched "full screening" or "full body check-up Philippines," you're probably past the point of wanting a definition. You want to know what's actually included, how much it should cost, whether it's worth it at your age, and where to book one without getting upsold at the counter. This article answers all of that — and walks through Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health, Hati Health's 50-marker full screening package, so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.
Full Body Check 50 with FREE Doctor Consultation
Starts at ₱5,950
Know your whole body. Not just a number.
Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health offers a wide range of health screenings suitable for anyone interested in a comprehensive overview of their health status. This package includes 50 tests to help detect early signs of potential health issues, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to take charge of their health.
The Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health gives you a comprehensive set of health tests and a FREE general physician consult.
What is the Full Body Check 50, exactly?
A full screening (also called a full body check-up, executive check-up, or comprehensive health screening) is a single-visit panel of laboratory tests that looks across multiple organ systems at once—heart, hormones, liver, kidneys, blood, immune markers, and digestion—rather than testing for one condition at a time. The point isn't to diagnose an illness you already suspect. It's to catch the things that don't announce themselves: a rising fasting glucose, a creeping LDL, a thyroid that's quietly under- or overactive, a liver enzyme that's off before you feel anything at all.
This matters more in the Philippines than the marketing usually admits. Ischaemic heart disease was the leading cause of death in the country from January to November 2023, with 100,848 recorded cases—19.0% of all deaths—and this has held true for consecutive years running, according to the Philippine Statistics Authority. Heart disease doesn't typically arrive as a single dramatic event; it's usually the endpoint of years of undetected cholesterol, blood pressure, and metabolic changes that a full screening is specifically built to surface early.
Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health is Hati Health's version of this: 50 tests across 7 systems, plus a free physician consult to walk you through what the numbers mean, for ₱5,950. See the full package details.
What's included in a Full Screening (50 Tests, 7 Systems)
Not all "full screenings" are actually full. Some clinics sell a 15- or 20-marker panel under the same name. Here's exactly what Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health covers, broken down by system:
- Heart & Circulation (12 tests) — Cholesterol panel, ApoA1/ApoB, troponin, and additional cardiac and lipid markers that go beyond a standard lipid profile.
- Hormones, Metabolism & Energy (8 tests) — Thyroid function, glucose, insulin, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, and related metabolic markers.
- Liver Health (10 tests) — A full liver function and enzyme workup, not just ALT/AST.
- Kidney Health (9 tests) — Electrolytes, creatinine with eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate), and related renal markers.
- Inflammation & Immune Markers (3 tests) — CRP (C-reactive protein), rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP.
- Blood Health & Iron Status (6 tests) — Complete blood count (CBC), ferritin, iron, TIBC, transferrin.
- Digestive Enzymes (2 tests) — Amylase and lipase.
That's 50 individual data points from one blood draw, at one visit, read together by a physician—not 50 numbers on a printout you have to Google on your own.
How much does a Full Screening cost in the Philippines?
Pricing for comprehensive panels in Metro Manila hospitals and diagnostic centers typically runs anywhere from ₱3,000 for a stripped-down basic panel to well above ₱15,000–₱20,000 for a true executive check-up with imaging and specialist consults bundled in. The gap in what "full" actually means from provider to provider is the single biggest source of confusion in this category — and it's why comparing marker count, not just price, matters more than people assume.
Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health is priced at ₱5,950, and that figure already includes the physician consult and personalized action plan — most competing packages charge separately for the doctor's read-through, or skip it entirely and hand you a printout. For comparison, a comparable 50-marker panel booked independently abroad can run ₱35,000 or more, typically without any doctor included to interpret it. At ₱5,950 with a free consult built in, Full Body Check 50 by Hati Health positions itself as a full diagnostic workup priced closer to a basic panel.
Who should get a Full Body Check 50 Screening?
The honest answer is broader than "everyone over 40," though age is one factor. Here's who benefits most:
- Adults 30+ with no recent baseline labs. Metabolic and cardiac changes are often silent in your 30s and 40s — this is exactly the window where a screening catches something before it becomes symptomatic.
- Anyone with a family history of diabetes, heart disease, or thyroid conditions. diabetes prevalence in the Philippines is estimated at 6.3%, meaning roughly 1 in 14 Filipino adults is living with the condition, per Diabetes Philippines, Inc. data cited by the Philippine News Agency — and a large share of cases go undetected until complications appear, since diabetes rarely causes obvious symptoms in its early stages.
- Employees due for annual or pre-employment medical requirements who want a more useful panel than the minimum HR checklist.
- Anyone experiencing unexplained fatigue, weight change, or digestive symptoms who wants one comprehensive workup instead of separate, piecemeal tests ordered over several visits.
- Parents managing a household's health calendar who want a single, efficient way to check in on a spouse or aging parent's baseline numbers.
Full Screening vs. Basic Check-Up: what's the difference?
A basic check-up — the kind required for pre-employment or annual HR clearance — usually covers a CBC, urinalysis, chest X-ray, and maybe a fasting blood sugar. It confirms you're fit to work. It does not screen for cardiovascular risk markers like ApoA1/ApoB, kidney function via eGFR, inflammatory markers like CRP, or a full liver enzyme workup.
The practical difference: a basic check-up can clear you as "fit" while missing early-stage markers for the exact conditions killing the most Filipinos. ischaemic heart disease alone accounted for 19.0% of all deaths in the Philippines (PSA), and a standard pre-employment panel typically isn't designed to catch its early warning signs — the more detailed lipid and cardiac markers in a full screening are. If you've only ever had basic check-ups, a full screening is the upgrade that actually looks at the systems most likely to fail first.
Do I need to fast before a Full Body Check 50?
Yes. Most of the metabolic and lipid markers in Hati Complete — including glucose, insulin, and the full cholesterol panel — require 8–12 hours of fasting for accurate results. Water is fine; food and sugary drinks are not. Your booking confirmation will include the exact fasting window for your appointment time, and the partner clinic staff will confirm before the draw. If you've eaten recently, it's better to reschedule than to get skewed numbers you'll have to redo.
What happens after you get results?
This is the step most full-screening packages skip, and it's the one that actually determines whether the test changes anything for you.
- Book & draw. Log in to your Hati Health account, and looking for your “Prepaid Services” and book your consult at your own convenience.
- Results, explained. A physician reviews all 50 markers with you, free of charge, walking through what's in range, what's borderline, and what needs follow-up.
- Your plan. You leave with a personalized action plan built from your actual labs — not a generic wellness checklist.
A lab report full of reference ranges is only useful if someone translates it into what to actually do next. That's the gap Hati Complete is built to close: the same 50 markers you'd get from an independent lab, but with the physician read-through included by default rather than billed separately or left out.
