A full-body executive checkup at China's JCI-accredited teaching hospitals — imaging, labs, tumor markers, cardiac and GI screening, same-week appointments, and English results — for a fraction of the US price.
PDF — the published all-in package bands, what every tier includes vs what is billed separately, who a checkup is (and is not) for, the 4–7 day trip shape, and how escrow works for a screening booking.
Last updated: 15 September 2026. A serious executive health screening in the US runs $2,000–$10,000 with weeks of scheduling. China's top hospitals run comprehensive same-week programs — imaging, labs, tumor markers, cardiac and GI screening, and a physician review in English — at $400–$2,500 all-in. Many international visitors combine the checkup with a visa-free trip to the Hainan Boao Lecheng Pilot Zone or a city break in Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou.
What this guide covers: the published 2026 all-in cost bands by tier, exactly what is included in a package versus billed separately, who a checkup is for and who it is not for, the hospitals in our network that take international patients, how escrow protects a screening booking, the step-by-step process, and the questions international visitors ask most.
Typical all-in package ranges from partner hospitals, 2025–2026. Packages differ by depth; the quote itemizes every scan and lab. Last verified: September 2026.
| Package | Typical US price | China all-in | Savings vs US |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential (labs, ultrasound, ECG, physician review) | $2,000–$4,000 | $400–$800 | 80% |
| Comprehensive (+ MRI/CT, tumor markers) | $4,000–$7,000 | $800–$1,500 | 79–80% |
| Premium executive (full imaging + cardiac + GI) | $6,000–$10,000 | $1,200–$2,500 | 75–80% |
Prices move with package depth and hospital. We re-verify each quote before you commit, and the quote you receive names every scan and lab line by line.
Above the top band? For screening that adds whole-body MRI, low-dose lung CT and a multi-gene risk panel, see the premium longevity screening breakdown — itemised from the hospital's own package sheet and benchmarked against published Singapore, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur prices.
Typically included in an all-in package:
Typically billed separately: any treatment, procedure, medication or specialist consultation that follows a finding (quoted separately and escrow-protected); flights, hotels and airport transfers; visa fees; and optional add-on scans you request beyond the package sheet. Your quote separates these lines up front so there are no surprise bills after screening.
It is a good fit if you are:
It is not for you if:
We work with China's JCI-accredited teaching hospitals and their dedicated international departments in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu and the Hainan Boao Lecheng Pilot Zone — China's designated medical-tourism free trade zone, where approved international medical services and visa-free entry policies make a screening trip simple. All of them run dedicated international patient services with English-speaking coordinators.
Facility availability varies between hospitals and changes over time. We confirm the current status and the hospital's own published pricing for your chosen package before you commit to anything — see our executive checkup cost page for the current band.
A checkup is a smaller commitment than surgery, but the classic medical-travel failure mode is the same: you pay a coordinator or clinic up front and then the schedule slips, the package shrinks, or the contact goes quiet. Most medical-travel agencies ask for 100% upfront with no recourse.
Verified China Care structures every payment through an independent third-party escrow agent, including screening bookings. You fund escrow, funds are released to the hospital in stages tied to documented delivery milestones, and if the package is not delivered as agreed, funds stay frozen while the dispute is resolved. You never pay an agent's 30–60% markup, and you never pay for services not rendered. Because a checkup is simpler and shorter than surgery, there are fewer milestones and less to argue about — the same protection, less friction.
Do I need a visa for an executive health checkup in China?
It depends on your nationality and route. Many international visitors use a standard tourist visa or visa-free transit for a short screening trip, and the Hainan Boao Lecheng Pilot Zone operates under its own visa-free entry policy for approved medical services. Check our China medical visa guide for your specific case — your coordinator issues the invitation and support documentation your package requires.
How long is the trip for a full-body executive checkup?
Most comprehensive programs complete in 1–2 days on site; premium packages that add endoscopy may take 2–3 days. Including travel, most visitors plan a 4–7 day trip, with results and the physician review delivered before you fly home.
Are the results and reports in English?
Yes. You receive a bilingual written report in English plus imaging on disk/USB and lab results, structured so you can hand it directly to your home doctor. The physician review is conducted with English-speaking coordination.
Can a checkup lead to treatment coordination?
Yes. If a finding warrants follow-up, your report is reviewed by a physician and we can coordinate an optional specialist referral or a treatment plan. Any treatment is quoted separately and escrow-protected. A screening package does not include treatment.
Is an executive checkup a substitute for my home doctor?
No. An executive checkup is a screening snapshot, not a diagnosis and not a substitute for your own physician or routine primary care. It does not rule out disease. Results are reviewed by a physician, and you should continue regular care with your home doctor.
Can I get copies of my imaging?
Yes — you receive all imaging on disk/USB, lab results, and a bilingual written summary for your home physician.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, 2–4 weeks is typical for premium packages, though same-week slots are often available. Your coordinator manages the schedule around your travel dates.
