Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an MRI cost in Beijing through this package?
From $250 for a standard single-region MRI — coordination plus the typical hospital fee. Contrast or additional regions cost more; you get a clear estimate first.
Will my home doctor be able to use the report and images?
Yes. You receive a certified English report plus DICOM files, which any radiologist or specialist can open in a standard viewer.
How fast can the scan be arranged?
Often within days of arrival, depending on hospital availability and clinical suitability. We confirm a specific appointment before you travel.
Is China MedPass a hospital or a medical provider?
No. China MedPass is an independent medical coordination service. We are not a hospital, clinic, or healthcare provider and we do not practise medicine. All imaging, diagnosis, and treatment are performed by licensed physicians at accredited Beijing hospitals; clinical decisions are theirs alone.
