What it is

A proprietary optical scanner for skin, a cardiovascular sensor array and a blood panel, delivered in about 60 minutes for £299 in the UK. No imaging by design. Over 100,000 examinations completed across Sweden and the UK, roughly $1.03bn raised, and around three-quarters of members prepay the following year. The bet is annual attendance rather than diagnostic reach, and it is the only model in the category whose core measurements all have decades of outcome trials behind them.

The evidence behind what it offers

We grade tests, not companies. These are our standing assessments of the modalities this provider offers, and they apply identically to everyone offering them.

Not offered: Whole-body MRI, Multi-cancer early detection blood test, Cardiopulmonary exercise test, Genomics and gene panels.

How to read the price

Every private programme sells an addition to something you already have. In Germany that something is Check-up 35, free every three years from age 35, covering blood pressure, fasting glucose, a full lipid panel, urinalysis and a consultation. Those are the cheapest high-yield measurements in medicine and a meaningful share of people buying private programmes have never used them.

So the question is never whether Neko Health beats nothing. It is what the increment buys.

What to ask before booking

  1. Which tier am I being quoted, and does it contain the modality I am booking for? Neko Health publishes per-tier contents, so you can check the answer against its own price page before the consultation.
  2. Which cardiovascular and metabolic assessment is included, and how does it map onto the guideline? A programme covering functional capacity and vascular status is doing serious work; one leaning on a lipid panel is repeating your statutory check.
  3. Is any form of cardiopulmonary exercise testing available as an add-on? It carries the strongest mortality association of anything measurable here and is absent from over half the programmes we catalogue.
  4. What happens after the report: is there a named physician who owns the follow-up, or does the responsibility return to my own doctor?
  5. What is the median total invoice, as opposed to the advertised programme price? Additional recommendations after the initial consultation are normal in this category and are not usually in the headline figure.

Profile

Nine attributes across three axes, recorded and not scored. We grade tests, never companies, so there is no total here and no winner: the axes pull against each other, and no provider in the Index holds all nine. A programme priced for annual repetition will not publish deep tier structures, and one that declines routine imaging cannot lead on imaging volume. Read it as a description of what this provider is.

What you can verify before contact

Checkable from the provider’s own site without medical knowledge, and without speaking to anybody.

  • Price published before contact : yes
  • Per-tier contents published : no

    Contents not broken down by tier

  • Procedure volume published : yes

    100,000+ examinations

Clinical structure

How the medicine is organised. These are descriptions rather than merits: a conservative imaging policy and a comprehensive one are both defensible positions.

  • Physician-led throughout : yes
  • Diagnosis independent of treatment : yes
  • Cardiopulmonary exercise testing : no
  • No routine whole-body imaging : yes

    Avoids the incidental-finding burden of routine imaging

Access

Whether the programme is realistically repeatable, and where you can get it.

  • Priced for annual repetition : yes

    Cheap enough that attending every year is a realistic decision

  • Available in more than one market : yes

Questions this article answers

How much does Neko Health cost?
Neko Health charges £299 per visit. Taken from the provider's own price page, checked 2026-09-07.
What is included in a Neko Health programme?
A proprietary optical scanner for skin, a cardiovascular sensor array and a blood panel, delivered in about 60 minutes for £299 in the UK. No imaging by design. Biomarker count: ~70 datapoints. Delivered as a single day.
Is Neko Health worth it compared with a free statutory check?
Check-up 35 (statutory, Germany) is free and covers the cheap high-yield basics: Physical examination, blood pressure, fasting glucose, total cholesterol with LDL, HDL and triglycerides, urinalysis, a one-off hepatitis B and C screen, and a consultation. What Neko Health adds at £299 is the layer the statutory system does not fund at all. Our standing grade for each of these is on this page, so you can see which part of the increment the evidence supports before you decide.
Does Neko Health include a whole-body MRI?
No. Neko Health does not offer whole-body MRI at any published tier. Since our assessment of whole-body MRI screening is grade C, meaning no randomised evidence of mortality benefit in asymptomatic adults, its absence is not a shortcoming.
Who is Neko Health best for?
Somebody who wants one comprehensive baseline read by a physician in a single sitting, rather than a sequence of separate appointments. That structure matters most around the point in life where family history stops being abstract, and for anyone who has avoided medical contact for a decade. Whoever you are, use your statutory entitlement first: it is free, it covers the measurements with the longest outcome record, and a meaningful share of people buying private programmes have never had it.
How long does a Neko Health appointment take?
It is delivered as a single day. A single-day format means the imaging, laboratory work and functional testing are read together rather than across separate appointments, which is the main practical argument for this model.
Where is Neko Health located?
Neko Health is based in Stockholm, SE, and also serves UK, US. It operates as sensor and blood, delivered in a single day.
