Mainland care, international clinics & cross-border cover

Public, employer & private care

Mainland China has public hospitals, private facilities and international or VIP departments. A public hospital visit is not proof of subsidised entitlement or acceptance of an overseas insurance card. Confirm employee social-insurance enrollment separately with HR and the local authority.

Finding care where you stay

Choose the city and the precise department, not just the hospital group. Beijing's official medical guide lists Peking Union Medical College Hospital international services, Beijing United Family and Raffles Hospital Beijing among its emergency-care examples. These are government-listed examples, not verified insurer-network partners. Shanghai, Shenzhen and other cities need their own facility checks.
