Before Your Visit

What to bring
  • Your original passport β€” registration is real-name
  • Previous records in their original language (we translate)
  • Original imaging files (DICOM), not screenshots
  • A current medication list with doses
  • Your insurance card and approval letter, if the insurer is paying
International insurance

Hospitals with an international department can often bill international insurers directly. It depends on your insurer and policy β€” most mainstream international plans are accepted. Your insurer usually has to approve the visit first, and your deductible and any excluded items remain yours. We check with the hospital before you travel.

Payment

Public hospitals charge before each test or consultation. Hospital fees are passed on at cost with the hospital's receipt; we take no commission from hospitals or doctors.

Emergencies

Outpatient and international clinics are not emergency services. In an emergency in China, call 120 or go straight to a hospital emergency department.

Why Ruijin Hainan Hospital Matters

Ruijin Hospital is one of Shanghai's leading teaching hospitals, and its Hainan hospital sits inside the Boao Lecheng pilot zone, where hospitals can apply to use medicines and devices approved abroad but not yet in China. For international patients it links the pilot-zone policy with the clinical experience of a major Shanghai hospital. Eligibility is decided case by case, so we start from your records.

What International Patients Can Access

China MedPass can coordinate the following at Ruijin Hainan Hospital for international patients:

How China MedPass Helps (Typical Pathway)

  1. 1

    Case review

    You share your records (existing imaging, lab results, a short problem summary) in their original language. We translate and summarise them and identify the right department and specialist.

  2. 2

    Hospital & specialist matching

    We match you to the hospital and senior-attending-level specialist whose expertise actually fits your specific clinical question β€” not a generic outpatient slot.

  3. 3

    Appointment booking

    We secure the appointment, send you a preparation pack covering documents, payment, what to bring, and confirm the bilingual escort schedule.

  4. 4

    On-site bilingual escort

    Your local coordinator meets you at the hospital, handles registration and communication in Mandarin, attends the consultation with you, and makes sure nothing gets lost in translation.

  5. 5

    Report translation & DICOM collection

    We deliver a structured English summary of the hospital's reports plus your DICOM imaging files by secure download, ready for your home doctor.

  6. 6

    Follow-up coordination

    30-day follow-up window β€” we coordinate clarifications with the hospital, optional physician-to-physician calls, and any additional documentation your home team requests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a medicine that is not approved in China?
Possibly, under the Boao Lecheng pilot-zone policy, if the hospital's doctors confirm a clinical need and the application is approved. It is case by case and not guaranteed; we check with the hospital using your records.
How long does it take?
Plan for weeks rather than days: the medicine is imported for your treatment after approval. Confirm the timeline before booking flights.
Can foreigners be seen at Ruijin Hainan Hospital?
Yes, as self-pay patients. Registration is real-name, so we need the patient's passport details before appointment slots are released. China MedPass books through the hospital's official system and arranges interpretation.
Can I combine treatment with a holiday in Sanya?
Yes β€” that is why many patients choose Sanya. Plan treatment first and leisure around it: after dental surgery or other procedures, follow the doctor's advice on sun, swimming and flying.
Do I need a visa for Hainan?
Hainan has its own visa-free entry policy for citizens of many countries, and China's wider visa-free rules may also apply. Rules change β€” check the current policy with the Chinese consulate or China's National Immigration Administration before booking.
Can I use international health insurance?
Hospitals with an international department can often bill international insurers directly, depending on your insurer and policy. Your insurer usually has to approve the visit first; we check with the hospital before you travel.
