China operates an extensive high-speed railway network connecting provincial capitals, major commercial centers and many popular tourism destinations. High-speed trains provide an important transportation option for medium-distance and interregional journeys.
For longer journeys, China’s domestic aviation network connects major tourism regions with large medical cities such as Shanghai, Hangzhou, Beijing, Guangzhou and Chengdu.
International travelers are not necessarily limited to the medical services available in the city where they are currently staying. China’s transportation network may allow them to consider hospitals in another city when local services do not meet their needs.
China has developed an extensive national transportation network connecting major cities, regional tourism destinations and leading medical centers. International visitors who become ill while traveling in one part of China may be able to reach a larger city for specialist consultation, diagnostic examinations or follow-up care by high-speed rail or domestic flight.
“I became concerned about a health issue while traveling in southwestern China, but I was not sure whether to continue locally or visit a larger medical center. MedigoChina helped me understand the available hospital options and arrange an appointment before I traveled to the destination city.”
