Clinical instructions and an agreed communication route

This is a sequence of coordination steps, not a fixed treatment or travel timetable. Clinical timing is determined by the hospital.

Prepare for hospital review

Once the process and handling arrangements are agreed, organize the information requested by the hospital. Its clinicians decide whether further assessment or an in-person consultation is appropriate. If the team declines your case, we say so plainly and refund the coordination fee in full.

Confirm the plan before travel

We put the confirmed appointments, package inclusions, payments and travel arrangements in writing before you make the trip.

Attend your appointments in Beijing

Your coordinator assists with agreed visits and communication. Examinations, treatment decisions and clinical consent remain with the hospital and its clinicians.

Prepare for discharge and returning home

We help organize available reports, imaging and translation arrangements. The clinical team advises on travel readiness, medication and follow-up.

Connect the information after your visit

Share the discharge plan with your local clinicians. We coordinate follow-up communication within the agreed service duration; ongoing medical advice comes from your healthcare providers.

What the trips can look like

Our planning outline allows two to three days for an initial consultation and pre-operative assessment, followed by a second trip for the procedure and a recovery stay of around a month. A follow-up around month three may involve another visit or coordination from home. Your hospital team confirms the examinations, dates, follow-up location and when you can fly; this outline is not a fixed medical timetable.

Practical details

Before leaving Beijing, check the handoff.

Use discharge planning to clarify both medical instructions and practical communication. Your clinical team determines the care you need; coordination helps organize the information.

Have the available reports and imaging files been gathered?
Which documents need translation for your local clinicians?
Who provides follow-up advice and through which confirmed channel?
What does the clinical team advise about travel readiness?
What communication support remains within your agency service plan?

Before Beijing

A written answer before travel.

Trip 1

Consultation and assessment.

Plan around the hospital’s confirmed consultation and examination schedule. Your coordinator helps with arrivals, interpretation and the questions you want to take to the clinical team.

Confirm appointments before booking travel.
Bring the reports and imaging requested by the hospital.
Discuss options and next steps with the treating clinicians.
Receive the hospital’s plan before organizing a procedure visit.

Trip 2

Admission, procedure and discharge.

Admission on the confirmed date, into a single-patient room where one is available, with round-the-clock nursing care arranged through a licensed care provider — employed, trained and insured by that provider, working to an agreed care plan.

Your coordinator is at the hospital on procedure day: reachable, receiving the clinical team's updates, and passing them to you and to your family in your language. Your interpreter is at your bedside from the first evening.

Discharge is organized with the clinical team: medication, written instructions, and the first follow-up appointment set before you leave the ward.

Your recovery stay

Space to recover at your own pace.

Between follow-up visits, the month is yours — your apartment, your kitchen, your own pace. We stay reachable, and we keep every appointment on the calendar.

The length of your stay and when you may fly are confirmed by your clinical team. We organize your return around that advice.

Month 3 and beyond

Keep the next appointment connected.

If the team advises further follow-up, we help clarify the timing, location and records needed. When the team allows follow-up near home, we help organize the information for your local clinicians.

Keep the hospital’s written follow-up instructions.
Clarify which tests or reports the clinical team requests.
Confirm communication support within your agreed service duration.

Follow-up frequency is determined individually by the clinical team.
