> A rule comparison does not diagnose, book a visit or retrieve an individual NHIS record.

Korea Checkup Guide separates a reference rule comparison from an individual NHIS decision. Use the source-specific conditions for the screening year.

## What can a screening estimate not decide?

A rule comparison does not diagnose, book a visit or retrieve an individual NHIS record.

A birth year, sex and insurance category cannot capture previous tests, risk-group registration, treatment-related deferrals or changes during the year. Conditional items remain conditional even when their age threshold is met.

Korea Checkup Guide uses no patient name, ID number, full birth date or contact form. Calculator fields stay in browser memory. Optional server-side request logging is described separately in the editorial and privacy information.

## What else do people ask about Korea checkup reference tools?

### Can foreign insured residents use national screening?

Eligible foreign insured residents use the applicable NHIS program conditions. Nationality alone does not replace current insurance and target records.

### Is the calculator an official eligibility lookup?

No. It compares published rules locally and has no access to personal NHIS records or employer lists.

### Why can a past test change the answer?

Some items are offered once in an age band, while treatment or a previous examination can affect selection or deferral.

### Can an annual worker get every cancer test annually?

The annual non-office rule applies to general screening. Cancer programs retain their own age, risk and interval conditions.

### Does a blank statistic mean zero?

No. Blank numerical snapshots are uncollected or incompatible records and are never replaced with estimated observations.
