Sanya's municipal hospital, run with Sichuan University's West China Hospital.
By China MedPass · Updated · How we write
Hospitals with an international department can often bill international insurers directly. It depends on your insurer and policy — 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.
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.
Outpatient and international clinics are not emergency services. In an emergency in China, call 120 or go straight to a hospital emergency department.

Sanya People's Hospital works with Sichuan University's West China Hospital — one of China's most respected hospital systems — under the name West China Sanya Hospital. For visitors to Sanya it is a practical option for specialist consultations and imaging close to where they are staying.
China MedPass can coordinate the following at Sanya People's Hospital for international patients:
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.
We match you to the hospital and senior-attending-level specialist whose expertise actually fits your specific clinical question — not a generic outpatient slot.
We secure the appointment, send you a preparation pack covering documents, payment, what to bring, and confirm the bilingual escort schedule.
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.
We deliver a structured English summary of the hospital's reports plus your DICOM imaging files by secure download, ready for your home doctor.
30-day follow-up window — we coordinate clarifications with the hospital, optional physician-to-physician calls, and any additional documentation your home team requests.
Two cost components, no surprises:
Paid directly to Sanya People's Hospital on the day of service. Amount depends on the specific imaging, consultation or procedure — quoted in writing before you travel.
From $250 for an imaging-only coordination case; from $400 for a written second opinion; from $450 for a senior specialist consultation; from $980 for full-concierge complex cases.
What's included in our coordination fee: case review, hospital booking, full-day bilingual escort, English report translation, DICOM file collection, 30-day follow-up. All prices subject to hospital availability and clinical suitability — we confirm the full quote in writing before any payment.
Tell us about your case and we'll confirm whether Sanya People's Hospital is the right fit, then arrange the appointment, bilingual escort and English report end-to-end.
