Health
Screening in Bali for Expats, Tourists & Work Visas
Whether you’re an expat needing an annual check, a tourist
with one free morning, a digital nomad keeping insurance valid, or
someone completing a visa or pre-employment medical, Bali makes a
thorough health screening easy to fit in — and Sanur Health Concierge
tailors the package and schedule to your situation. An expat
health check in Bali looks different from a tourist’s tight one-day
screening, which differs again from a visa medical’s specific required
tests. This page walks through what each scenario needs, realistic
turnaround times, and how we arrange it end to end.

Expats & Retirees — the
Annual Check
If Bali is your home, a yearly screening close by is far easier than
flying back to your country for one. Expats and retirees benefit
from:
- An Executive or Deluxe tier that tracks key markers
year on year (cholesterol, glucose/HbA1c, blood pressure, kidney and
liver function). - Age-appropriate additions — over-40s and over-50s
should add cancer-marker and cardiac screening. See our guides for over-40s and over-50s and
retirees. - A consistent GP-ready report so trends are easy to
follow over time.
We help you set a sensible annual rhythm and pick the right tier for your age and
history.
Tourists — the Tight
One-Day Screening
Visiting Bali and want a check-up without losing a holiday? Most of
the testing fits in a single morning:
- Choose a Basic or Executive package that completes
its in-person tests in 3–4 hours. - Arrive the evening before so you can fast overnight
and test first thing. - Results follow you home — anything not ready
same-day is delivered digitally, usually within 1–3 working days. See
our guide on how long
results take.
Some travellers turn it into a relaxed wellness break; our 3-day
itinerary shows how to combine a Sanur stay with a screening day. We
schedule everything around your flights and plans.
Digital Nomads — Keep
Your Insurance Valid
Many nomad and international health insurance plans expect a recent
annual health check. A Bali screening is a convenient, affordable way to
stay compliant:
- An Executive tier usually satisfies “annual full
health check” requirements (TODO-VERIFY your policy’s exact
wording). - We provide an itemised, English invoice and GP-ready
report suitable for insurer documentation. - It’s easy to schedule between work weeks. More in our blog on annual health
checks for digital nomads.
Always confirm your insurer’s specific requirements in writing
first.
Visa & Residency Medicals
Some Indonesian visas and residency processes require a medical
examination, which can often be completed in Bali (TODO-VERIFY current,
exact requirements for your visa class — these change and vary by
category):
- Typical components may include a physical exam, chest X-ray
and selected blood tests. - The exact tests, the approved facilities and the certifying format
depend on the visa type and immigration rules. - We help you match your screening to the documented requirement and
choose an appropriate facility.
For specifics, see our blog on medical check-ups for
Indonesian visas and residency. Because requirements change, we
always verify against current rules before scheduling.
Pre-Employment &
Corporate Screening
Employers often require a standardised pre-employment medical, and
companies arrange group screening for staff:
- Pre-employment medicals usually cover a physical
exam, vision, chest X-ray and core bloods — exact tests are set by the
employer. See what tests
employers require. - Corporate group check-ups can be scheduled in
batches with consistent reporting.
Tell us the employer’s required panel and headcount, and we’ll
arrange a compliant, efficient package.
