Hospital price schedule

Individual prices from Chinese public-hospital schedules: one scan, one night, one procedure. A hospital bill is a stack of these lines, and you are entitled to see each one.

Prices in USD, with the CNY schedule price beneath. Converted at ¥7.2 per USD.

How to read these prices

A schedule price is the price of one thing. A treatment is a stack of things.

Schedule prices are per item

One scan, one night, one procedure, one test. They are not treatment totals and they are not a quote for your case.

A bill is a stack

A knee replacement is the operation, the implant, seven ward nights, anaesthesia, pre-operative imaging and post-operative physiotherapy — each billed separately.

Ask for the itemised version

You are entitled to a line-by-line estimate before treatment. If a hospital will only give you a single figure, ask again.

Building an estimate list? Use the + button on any line item to add it to your estimate list, then send it to a coordinator. We will return a complete written estimate that adds ward stay, medication, consumables and the surgical fee to whatever you selected. A subtotal of schedule lines is not a treatment cost.

What can cost extra

  • ICU days if your recovery needs intensive care ($800–2,500 per day).
  • Imported rather than domestic implants (often $2,000–3,000 more).
  • Targeted cancer therapy and immunotherapy, frequently outside a base quote.
  • Additional ward nights beyond the estimated stay ($100–200 each).
  • Blood products, which are billed separately in China.

What is usually already included

  • Nursing care during the ward stay.
  • Standard consumables, dressings and basic medication.
  • Pre-operative assessment and routine blood work.
  • The surgeon's and anaesthetist's fees for the listed procedure.
  • One post-operative review appointment.

Fee questions

Where do these schedule prices come from?

They are assembled from publicly published provincial and municipal medical-service price schedules in mainland China, cross-checked against itemised estimates our coordinators have received from partner hospitals.

Prices vary between provinces and between hospital tiers. Treat the numbers here as a national reference point, not as the price at a specific hospital.

Why is the CNY figure sometimes a round number?

Because the Chinese schedule is set in yuan, not dollars. A ¥10 line becomes $1.39 at our reference rate. We show both so you can see the schedule price rather than only our conversion.

Do these prices include the doctor's fee?

For surgical procedures, yes — the schedule fee for an operation bundles the surgeon, the anaesthetist, the operating theatre and the standard consumables. For outpatient visits, the registration fee and the consultation fee are billed separately and both are listed here.

Can I be charged more than the schedule price?

International departments sometimes apply a modest premium over the domestic schedule, and they may charge more for a single room, a named professor or an imported implant. Those differences are legitimate, but they should appear as separate lines on your estimate.

Is this a quote for my treatment?

No. This is a reference schedule so you can sanity-check a quote. Your actual estimate comes from the hospital, in writing, after they review your records.
