What does treatment cost in China vs Western countries?
In China, a comprehensive Cardiac Risk Screening package (coronary CTA, echocardiogram, stress test, and lipid panel) typically costs between $800 and $1,500 USD at a top-tier international hospital. In the United States, the same combination of tests can range from $3,000 to $6,000 USD or more, depending on insurance and facility fees. In Western Europe, prices are generally $2,000–$4,000 USD. These figures exclude travel and accommodation but highlight significant savings. Some Chinese hospitals offer all-inclusive packages that include a consultation with a cardiologist and a written report in English.
