Top-grade hospitals in Beijing

Looking for the “best” hospitals in Beijing? The right one depends on your medical needs — tell us yours and a person on our team matches you with hospitals and doctors that fit. The official yardstick for a hospital's overall level is its grade: Grade III, Class A (三级甲等) is the highest tier in China's hospital grading system. Of the hospitals we profile in Beijing, 7 state this grade on an official page: Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital; Beijing Friendship Hospital; Beijing Jishuitan Hospital; Beijing Tiantan Hospital; China-Japan Friendship Hospital; Peking Union Medical College Hospital; and Peking University Third Hospital. We have not yet found the grade of the others on an official page. A grade describes a hospital's scale and scope, not whether it is right for your condition. How hospital grades work.

Seeing a doctor in Beijing as a foreigner

Beijing’s municipal government publishes a Medical Guide for Foreigners. It describes the usual flow at a hospital as registration, payment, consultation, then treatment, and it lists the major institutions in the city that run international medical departments.

Appointments are real-name: Beijing’s health commission requires a valid identity document number when booking, and a passport is one of the documents it names. The official channels are the Beijing 114 appointment platform and the “International Service Beijing” (Jingtong) mini-program inside WeChat and Alipay, which has an English option. Hospitals’ international departments often take bookings directly by phone or through their own apps as well.

Paying

For the international departments it lists, the city’s guide names RMB cash, major international credit cards, UnionPay cards, and WeChat Pay or Alipay as payment methods, and says that patients using insurance direct billing should bring their insurance card and passport. Do not assume every hospital or every department accepts foreign cards — ask before you go.
