The first state-run qualification test for medical tour coordinators will be held in September, a government agency said Thursday.

Human Resources Development of Korea will hold the preliminary qualification exam on Sept. 28 for medical tour coordinators who provide foreign patients with transportation, accommodations and general information on their treatments.

Along with the new plan, the Ministry of Justice will simplify the process for medical tourists to receive electronic visas, officials said.

Qualified applicants must submit language certifications in their preferred languages, including English, Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Thai, Arabic and Vietnamese. The minimum score requirement varies by language.

Applicants should apply online at www.Q-Net.or.kr between Aug. 30 and Sept. 5.
