You don’t need to call the hospital, navigate Mandarin paperwork, or guess which specialty desk to approach. SSAnkang acts as your single point of contact — we coordinate the appointment, translate your records, brief the receiving physician, and meet you on arrival.
Submit your case to SSAnkang with a brief diagnosis summary, recent imaging, current medication list, and your passport scan. Our coordinators pre-screen the case with the Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital International Department, secure the right specialty slot, translate your medical records, and brief the receiving physician. You receive a written confirmation and pre-visit checklist before you travel.
Typical lead time at Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital is 5-10 business days. SSAnkang coordinators submit your case the same business day we receive complete medical records, then confirm the slot directly with the hospital’s international desk.
SSAnkang prepares a written cost estimate before arrival and provides reimbursement-ready invoices for your insurance claim.
