Beijing Anzhen Hospital - International Medical Center

Beijing Anzhen Hospital is a world-class center for cardiovascular medicine and surgery, performing over 15,000 cardiac procedures annually across its cardiology, cardiac surgery, and vascular surgery departments. Affiliated with Capital Medical University and designated as the Beijing Heart, Lung and Blood Vessel Disease Institute, the hospital has shaped modern cardiovascular practice in China — from coronary intervention protocols to complex aortic and congenital heart surgery — with faculty recognized as national leaders in the field. Our International Medical Service offers comprehensive heart care spanning primary prevention, advanced diagnostic imaging, elective and emergency intervention, complex open-heart and aortic surgery, heart failure management, arrhythmia ablation and device therapy, and structured cardiac rehabilitation programs, all delivered by English-speaking cardiologists and cardiac surgeons who regularly publish in international cardiovascular journals. The service maintains 24-hour on-call heart attack response teams for international patients with acute coronary syndrome, and coordinates pre-authorization and direct billing for Aetna, Cigna, MSH, and Allianz commercial insurance holders. International coordinators prepare detailed treatment plans, translated discharge summaries, and links to cardiac rehabilitation sessions so that overseas patients can continue monitored care at home after returning from Beijing. On-site diagnostic services include Coronary Angiography, Cardiac MRI, Echocardiogram, ECG, and other advanced diagnostic studies, all scheduled with priority pathways for international patients to minimize total visit time. The department also provides 24-hour emergency services for international patients with acute conditions, with dedicated pathways in place to reduce wait times for urgent evaluation and care. English-speaking medical consultants and reception staff are available every day, complemented by dedicated international patient coordinators who manage the entire patient journey from arrival through discharge and professional medical translation support as needed. Direct billing is accepted for all major international insurers including Aetna, Cigna, MSH, and Allianz, with on-site insurance coordinators handling pre-authorization, guarantee-of-payment letters, and detailed claim documentation. Appointments can be arranged via Phone / WeChat / Online, with bilingual coordinators confirming exact arrival instructions in advance.
