Published direct-billing information
Renji Hospital states that its International Medical Service has direct-payment agreements with some insurance companies and also accepts patients who pay at their own expense. The hospital warns that direct billing does not guarantee complete coverage.
Direct billing
Renji instructs commercial-insurance patients to register with an insurance card and passport or other valid ID, complete the insurer's claim form, and return the form to reception after the visit. Hospitalization may require an insurer guarantee letter.
Self-pay
Renji publishes self-pay as an available route but does not publish a universal treatment price list on the reviewed pages. Ask for the first-consultation cost, likely tests, deposits, and an itemized estimate before travel.
