Both can be considered as per the available balance with the employee. Many companies just club the CL and SL into one leave as CL to avoid this confusion. Also, note that in many companies SL is allowed to be carried over to the next year and also encashable on F&F (after resignation), but CL is usually lapsed year-to-year and not encashable. So, in such cases, usually, employees will claim all leave under CL to save their SL.
What's your company's policy on CL and SL?

In our company, we use the following terms for sick leave: "NOT FEELING WELL" and for casual leave: "PERSONAL WORK." The company does not need to know more about the reason for leave, except in cases of MEDICAL LEAVE lasting more than 2-3 days. In such cases, the company requires a doctor's certificate as it may be related to claims or Medical Leave Quota/HPL.
The idea is that no one takes Sick Leave (SL) or Casual Leave (CL) seriously. Employees will take leave based on their convenience regardless of the leave balance they have.

I agree with what the HR mentioned above, but it's common sense that if a reason is specified, then you have to consider Sick Leave (SL) only. However, if no reason is provided, you can opt for either Casual Leave (CL) or SL. One correction to note is that SL will not be carried forward, nor will CL; both lapse in a year if no one has taken them. Only Earned Leave (EL) can be carried forward.
Hope everybody is clear, especially UKMitra. Please do not provide incorrect inputs unless you are certain. Please study the HR leave policy.
Thank you.

If the check up is a part of company facility / compulsion then the person should be treated as 'on duty' . That is a fair policy. If it is personal decision, let that be his/her choice.

In fact, it is up to the employee which leave he would like to avail as per his eligibility, i.e., leave in credit to his account. Generally, for a doctor's check-up, employees will apply for CL, and accordingly, it is to be calculated for sanction.
