# Biomedika Clinic: When You Just Need a Test
Most tourist medical situations on Lombok don't need a hospital. You're suspicious you might have dengue. You want a pre-flight COVID test. You want to confirm a stomach issue isn't bacterial before continuing your trip. For these situations, going to Siloam or Harapan Keluarga means a hospital bill, longer waits, and overcomplicated processes for a simple lab test.
Biomedika is the right alternative — a diagnostic-focused clinic that handles blood work, basic imaging, and routine testing efficiently and at a fraction of hospital prices.
Blood and urine tests:

COVID testing:
Vaccinations (limited):
Doctor consultations (general medicine, brief):
Scenario 1: Suspected dengue
You've had fever for 2–3 days, body aches, possibly a rash. Go to Biomedika same-day for the dengue NS1 + IgG/IgM panel. Result in 2–3 hours. If positive, the doctor will recommend supportive care and indicate when you should be re-tested for platelet count. If platelets are dropping, go to Siloam or Harapan Keluarga for monitoring (some dengue cases need IV fluids).
Scenario 2: Severe stomach upset for 4+ days
Standard travel diarrhea usually resolves in 2–3 days with hydration. If it persists, get a stool culture (400,000 IDR, 48-hour result) to identify whether it's bacterial. If bacterial, the doctor can prescribe targeted antibiotics. This avoids unnecessary broad-spectrum antibiotic use.
Scenario 3: Pre-flight COVID requirement
Some destinations still require negative COVID PCR for entry. Book a Biomedika PCR (800,000 IDR), schedule for the timing your destination requires (typically 24, 48, or 72 hours pre-flight), pick up the English certificate same-day.
Scenario 4: General mid-trip health check
For travelers spending weeks or months on Lombok who want a basic health check — comprehensive panel covers liver, kidney, glucose, cholesterol, blood count for 800,000 IDR. Useful peace of mind during long trips.
Biomedika accepts direct billing from some insurers (AdMedika, Allianz, AIA) for prearranged cases. For most tourist visits, payment is up-front and you submit receipts to your insurance for reimbursement. Receipts are issued in English with itemization suitable for international claim processing.
For travel insurance reimbursement claims, photograph or scan the receipt before mailing — original receipts sometimes get lost in mail.

Biomedika is the right first stop for diagnostic testing without serious symptoms. Use it instead of going straight to a hospital for: dengue testing, COVID testing, suspected food-related illness, routine health checks, vaccination updates, and pre-travel medical screening. For anything that feels seriously wrong — chest pain, severe shortness of breath, head injury, suspected fracture, persistent high fever with confusion — skip Biomedika and go directly to Siloam or Harapan Keluarga.
