Hospitals in China

Local Hospitals

In China, there are two types of hospitals, national hospitals and private hospitals. In larger places, you can find all kinds of divisional hospitals, especially in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai. In smaller places, you will have less choice. In most of the cities in China, you will find a hospital called “people’s hospital”; some places have a few of the “people’s hospital” and they are called “First people’s hospital”, “Second people’s hospital” etc. Usually, they can be found in the capital of each province. But in the countryside or remote places, you might only find some local clinics. The difference between national hospitals and private hospitals are:

National Hospital

Private Hospital

Charge

Inexpensive

Expensive (twice the nationals)

Service

Bad

Good

Environment

Crowded

Quiet

Waiting time

Long / no appointments allowed

Shorter / appointments available

Registering

Difficult (always long queue)

Easy

Seeing doctors in a national or local hospital

You cannot make an appointment to visit the doctor in national hospitals. You just have to go directly there. But you’d better go early, otherwise there will be a lot of people waiting in front of you and you may not get the chance to see the doctors before they get off work for the day. Once you arrive at the hospital, go to the information center to find out where the registration hall is and then go straight there to pay for the registration fees. You will get a receipt, keep it in your hand and go to where the doctor is and give it to the nurse. She’ll give you a waiting number, and then you wait to be called. Most of the old doctors don’t speak English, but some of the young doctors speak some English. If you don’t have somebody to translate for you, you’d better bring some notes in Chinese stating what you need, just in case there’s nobody there who speaks decent English. But you can make an appointment in private hospitals, and usually they can offer English service.

International Hospitals

The quality of international hospitals varies greatly from urban centers to rural countryside. Some urban hospitals have a special foreigner ward or VIP ward, both of which accept foreigners and are generally of a higher quality. There are a few international hospitals and clinics in major cities geared toward international visitors. If you have an emergency, check the Red Cross hospital where you are located. Red Cross hospitals tend to do a good job and their quality is good in general.

  3. I have heard that hospitals in China are managed by experienced manufacturing people because of their knowledge and experience with “Lean” principals and process improvement. Is this true? Can you send me a link to some articles that discuss this management style?

    Thank you.
