Published APE package prices in the Philippines run from PHP 530 to PHP 81,800. The floor is TopHealth’s Basic 5, advertised as “start at only P530,” and Kaiser Medical Center’s Basic 5 at a fixed PHP 850.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the top sits Makati Medical Center’s Comprehensive Abdominal A inpatient package at PHP 81,800, which includes endoscopy and colonoscopy with sedation, so it’s a screening-plus-procedure package rather than a check-up. Among plain check-ups, the highest published figure is MakatiMed’s HealthHub CVD Screening A at PHP 68,500. Every figure below was read off the provider’s own page or its own PDF on 10 August 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most price articles on this topic give you a category range and no provider name. That’s not usable. You can’t budget from “PHP 3,000 to PHP 8,000.”<\/span><\/p>\n

So this one is organized the way you actually choose: by tier, by provider type, and by where you are. Where a provider doesn’t publish a price, we say that plainly instead of filling the gap.<\/span><\/p>\n

What the Money Actually Buys<\/b><\/h2>\n

Package names are marketing. The test list is the product. Once you can read a test list, the price differences stop looking random.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Basic 5, the National Floor<\/b><\/h3>\n

A physical exam, a complete blood count, routine <\/span>urinalysis<\/span><\/a>, fecalysis and a chest x-ray make up the Basic 5. Makati Medical Center, TopHealth and FriendlyCare all define it that way, near-identically.<\/span><\/p>\n

The one real variation is the fifth slot: hospital and clinic versions use fecalysis, while Maxicare’s HMO version allows a random blood sugar or a cholesterol test instead. This is the tier most people mean when they say “medical” or “APE,” and it’s the tier that gets you a <\/span>fit-to-work certificate<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Basic 5 Plus an ECG or a Chemistry Panel<\/b><\/h3>\n

The next step up adds a <\/span>12-lead ECG<\/span><\/a>, a blood chemistry panel, or both. Kaiser sells Basic 5 plus ECG at PHP 1,300. Philippine Heart Center’s Basic Adult Package, at PHP 3,150, swaps in a fasting blood sugar and a lipid profile.<\/span><\/p>\n

Same idea, different assembly. This is where most corporate APE programs sit.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Comprehensive and Executive Tier<\/b><\/h3>\n

Above roughly PHP 7,000, the packages start looking alike across providers. They add:<\/span><\/p>\n
