About
What this directory is
A record of the international patient desk at each listed hospital in China: where the hospital says it is, how it says to reach it, which languages it names, and whether it claims to settle with insurers. One entry per hospital, each line tied to the official page it was read from.
A record of desks, not a guide to hospitals
Most sites about hospitals in China tell you which ones are good. This one does not, because it cannot: the only things it holds are statements hospitals and city governments have published about their international desks, and the dates on which those statements were read. The entry for a hospital is complete when it answers four plain questions: which door, which number, which languages, which way of paying. Anything beyond that, from reputation to price, is left out.
The site currently holds 36 hospitals in 5 cities, built on 2026-11-12 from ChinaMedMap's published records.
Where the entries come from
China Hospital Directory belongs to the ChinaMedMap group, which keeps the underlying hospital records: an editor reads a hospital's official pages and the city's medical guide for foreigners, writes down what they state, and attaches the page and the date to each statement. This site imports those records and reduces them to a directory. Nothing is typed into this site by hand, which is why an error is fixed in the record and the site is rebuilt, rather than patched here. The one sentence per hospital that is reused from ChinaMedMap as written is the short summary under the hospital's name.
What it refuses to record
- Scores, stars, rankings and words like "best". Lists are alphabetical and stay that way.
- Patient reviews, testimonials and stories.
- Prices, waiting times, success rates and outcomes.
- Any detail we could not find on an official page. A gap stays a gap and is labelled as one.
- Advice. Nothing here says which hospital or treatment suits you. For that there is a person at ChinaMedMap who reads requests.
Who operates it
China Hospital Directory is operated by the ChinaMedMap group and is one of its websites; the editorial team that keeps ChinaMedMap's hospital records keeps this directory. Hospitals are not charged to appear, cannot buy a position, and do not edit their entries. If ChinaMedMap has a commercial relationship with a listed hospital, the entry says so in its identity table.
Disclaimer
China Hospital Directory is not a hospital, a clinic, a booking service or an emergency service; in mainland China the ambulance number is 120. Entries reproduce what official pages said on a given date; pages change, numbers change and desks move. A phone number here is a published number, not a tested one, unless the entry says it was tested. Record statuses describe how the entry was checked, never the hospital's clinical quality. Confirm every detail with the desk before you act on it.
Report an error
Use the ChinaMedMap contact page. Name the hospital, the line that is wrong, and the official page that shows the correct detail. The correction goes into the record with its new source, and the directory is rebuilt from it.
