Green Channel Access
Bypass the System. Enter Through the Right Door.
Beijing's top hospitals have two realities: the public queue, and the Green Channel (绿色通道) — direct access to department heads and senior consultants, reserved for VIP and international patients. China MedPass exclusively operates in the second reality.
✓ Chief Physician & Department Head level access on every case
01
Direct Specialist Booking
We book appointments directly with the department head or chief physician for your condition — not a junior registrar or general outpatient slot.
02
International VIP Department Access
Major hospitals maintain dedicated international patient departments with English-ready staff and priority scheduling. We navigate this system so you don't have to.
03
No Public Queue
Chinese hospitals are among the world's busiest. Public wait times even locally can be weeks. Green Channel patients are seen on a separate, fast-tracked pathway.
04
Zero Markups — We Don't Work for Hospitals
We charge you a transparent service fee. We receive no commission, referral fee, or kickback from any hospital. Our only incentive is your outcome.
Getting to Beijing
Visas & Entry — Simpler Than You Think
Most international patients are surprised to learn they don't need a special medical visa for diagnostic appointments. Here's what you actually need to know.
Most common
Tourist Visa (L Visa)
Sufficient for most imaging appointments, diagnostic consultations, and short outpatient visits. Citizens of many countries also qualify for China's 144-hour transit visa exemption or new visa-free entry policies. We confirm your specific eligibility at booking.
For longer treatment
Medical Visa (F / Medical Purpose)
Required for extended treatment stays, surgical admissions, or inpatient care exceeding a tourist visa duration. China MedPass arranges the hospital invitation letter required to apply — a document the hospital can only provide through an accredited channel like ours.
We handle it
We Advise & Assist on Every Case
As part of your booking confirmation, we confirm exactly which visa you need, how to obtain it, and provide any hospital documentation required for your application. You will not arrive at the border unprepared.

Common Questions
What People Ask Before They Book
Is it legal for foreign nationals to receive medical care in China?
Yes. Chinese hospitals accept international patients as self-pay visitors. No special medical visa is required for consultations or diagnostic imaging. Major hospitals like PUMCH and Fuwai have dedicated international patient departments specifically for this purpose. You will need your passport for registration.
Will my home doctor accept the reports from Chinese hospitals?
Our English reports follow international clinical documentation standards and include all relevant findings, ICD-10 codes, and DICOM imaging files. GPs and specialists in Canada, the UK, Australia, and the US regularly accept and act on overseas medical reports in this format. We provide formatting guidance to ensure compatibility with your home country's systems.
Do I need to speak Mandarin?
Not at all. Your bilingual escort handles every interaction with hospital staff — from registration and triage to consultations and discharge instructions. You will not be left to navigate anything alone. All written materials are provided in English.
Can China MedPass help with conditions beyond imaging — like surgery or treatment?
Yes. While diagnostic imaging is our most common starting point, we coordinate across the full spectrum — specialist consultations, surgical second opinions, and where appropriate, full treatment coordination. If your case requires surgery at Tiantan or cardiovascular intervention at Fuwai, we manage the entire journey around it.
Do I need a special visa to receive medical care in China?
For most diagnostic and outpatient appointments, a standard tourist visa (L Visa) is sufficient. Many nationalities also qualify for China's visa-free entry or 144-hour transit exemption. For extended treatment or surgical stays, a medical visa may be required — China MedPass provides the hospital invitation letter needed to apply. We confirm your exact visa requirements as part of your booking confirmation.
How do I know China MedPass isn't just promoting hospitals for a commission?
We charge a transparent service fee to you — and nothing else. We receive zero commission, referral fees, or payments from any hospital or medical institution. Our hospital recommendations are based entirely on which institution has the strongest track record for your specific condition. You can verify this directly: we disclose all our partner hospitals publicly and encourage you to research them independently.
Not sure where to start? Begin with a free case assessment — no commitment, no cost. We'll tell you which hospital, what timeline, and a real cost estimate before you decide anything.
