Case-by-case approval is the path
1 planPublic evidence points to individual pre-authorisation or a guarantee of payment (GOP) arranged per case, rather than a standing hospital network in China. Approval depends on your policy, the treatment and the hospital's acceptance.
Based on public evidence as of 2026-08-03 (release R295). This is research information, not insurance advice, a payment guarantee or a contract interpretation. Eligibility, covered area, pre-authorisation, GOP, direct billing and payout always depend on your current policy and final confirmation by your insurer and the hospital.
