Huadong Hospital

Not yet verified

• International department founding year and annual foreign-patient numbers are not published.
• Founding date: the 2024 city page says 1921 (as Hong'en Hospital); the 2025 city profile and the hospital say Huadong Hospital itself was founded in 1951.
• The 80 beds and 'more than 20 private insurers' come from the 2025 city profile, which reads as hospital-supplied text.
• The 14-and-over age limit comes only from MediLink's page.
• The 181-2122-1395 number appears on the 2024 list and a 2016 page but not on the 2025 list.
• Hospital-wide bed numbers differ by source (860 to 1,500); not used.
• Whether the Minhang and Pudong outpatient branches offer international services is not known.
• No evidence of JCI accreditation.
• The hospital website could not be reached on 2026-10-07.
• Fudan 2024 rankings were not available; 2023 edition used.
• Building conflict: city lists (2024-10, 2025-08) place the international center in Building 5; MediLink lists Building 1, 1F, and Haodf's October 2026 schedules show international outpatient sessions in Building 1, 1F and special-needs sessions in Building 5, 2F. A search snippet said the center moved to Building 1 on 2025-10-01; the hospital has not confirmed this.
• Doctors and fees for international and special-needs sessions come from Haodf schedules (Oct 2026), which can change; the hospital publishes no fee list. Of about 430 Huadong doctors on Haodf, five showed sessions labeled international (Han Li, Xiao Jing, Chen Lin, Lian Baoling, Han Weijia). Bao Zhijun's current post was not re-checked.
• Checkup package prices are not published.
• Inbound booking: no source says whether patients outside China can book. Phone is the only stated booking channel, and email does not take bookings.
• No source says whether a passport can be used to register on any booking channel, including the WeChat / Alipay mini program.
• Lead time from first contact to an appointment is not published.
• No hospital-run remote case review or online consultation for patients abroad was found. The hospital website (huadonghospital.com) could not be reached on 2026-10-07, and web-archive copies date from 2022.
• Checkup package prices are not published by the hospital or by any non-selling platform found.
• The CNY 20,000 inpatient deposit comes only from MediLink-Global's provider page (an insurance network administrator). It covers insured members admitted before a guarantee letter arrives; the self-pay deposit is unknown.
• No source says whether the hospital issues English itemized receipts or English medical reports, or how imaging is handed over (DICOM disc, cloud link or film).
• MediLink lists 400 880 8820 against Huadong's international department. The same number appears on MediLink's other provider entries, so it is MediLink's own hotline, not a hospital number.
• MediLink gives huadongimc@163.com as the address for insurer guarantee letters; it does not appear on any official page.
• Extensions 30202 and 30201 on the switchboard (6248 3180) come from MediLink and a 2016 page; the 2024 city German-language list gives 6248 3180 with no extension.
• MediLink says the international department sees only patients aged 14 and over and does not offer scaling to under-18s. No official page states these limits, so they are not listed as restrictions.
• Interpreter fees, visa invitation letters and family stays in the ward are not documented.
• The international center has 80 inpatient beds (2025 city profile), but no source says which conditions can be admitted through it, so inpatient is 'unknown' for every condition.
• No source says whether international patients can get dialysis, IgA nephropathy care, eye care (including ICL) or dental care.
• No source says whether the hospital offers online follow-up visits that international patients can use from abroad.
