21世纪经济报道记者唐唯珂 入境医疗火了起来，全球范围来看跨境医疗并非新鲜事。 目前，全球患者的跨境流动大致呈现两种路径：一类是"向更高水平集中"，另一类则是"向更高性价比 转移"。 发展中国家的高净值人群，是"向上走"的主力。东南亚、中亚等地区的富裕阶层，由于本国高端医疗供 给有限，往往选择赴美、日、英等医疗高地，寻求更先进的技术与更成熟的治疗方案。 另一边，是发达国家中低收入群体的"向下走"。在英国、加拿大等高福利国家，为了规避动辄半年的手 术排队或昂贵的自费项目，患者则在全球寻找更具性价比、效率更高的医疗服务。 随着免签红利释放，"来华就医"热度攀升。在TikTok与小红书上，海外博主纷纷晒出就诊账单，来华看 病似乎成为新风向。 "在庞大的跨境市场之中，各国提供了一些借鉴经营，结合自己的优势和现实医疗基础有序发展产业， 才能规避可能出现的潜在问题。"华南某医疗机构从业人士向21世纪经济报道记者表示。 流动的市场：他山之石 医疗资源的差异,决定了跨境医疗这个流动的全球市场。 行研机构Wise Guy Reports预计，全球跨境医疗旅游市场将从2024年的1142亿美元增长到2032年的2500 亿美元， ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the emerging trend of "medical tourism" in China, where foreign visitors are increasingly seeking medical services alongside traditional tourism activities, driven by cost-effectiveness and efficiency in healthcare services [3][10]. Group 1: Medical Tourism Trends - The initial "must-visit" attractions for foreign tourists in China included online payment systems, high-speed trains, and hotel robots, which have now evolved to focus on dental, ophthalmological, and traditional Chinese medicine treatments [5][6]. - In 2024, Shenzhen is expected to provide medical services to 770,000 foreign patients, including 640,000 from Hong Kong and Macau, with the remainder from countries like the USA, Canada, and Japan [8]. - Shanghai's designated hospitals treated nearly 270,000 foreign patients, marking a 15% increase year-on-year, while the total number of international patients in key hospitals across China reached 1.28 million, a 73.6% increase compared to three years ago [9]. Group 2: Cost Comparison - The primary reason foreigners seek medical treatment in China is the significantly lower costs compared to their home countries. For instance, a routine heart check costs $75.4 in China, while in the US, it can range from $10,000 to $20,000 without insurance [15]. - An X-ray in China costs $19, which is notably cheaper than similar services in the US, where the costs can be exorbitantly high [16]. - The total cost for emergency services in China can be as low as $144, while in the US, ambulance services alone can start at $30,000 to $50,000 [18]. Group 3: Efficiency of Healthcare Services - The efficiency of healthcare services in China is a significant draw for foreign patients. For example, a patient can see a doctor within minutes of registering, and comprehensive health checks can be completed in just a few hours [32][30]. - The article highlights the stark contrast in waiting times for medical appointments between China and countries like the UK, where patients may wait months for consultations and treatments [25][28]. Group 4: Emerging Medical Tourism Packages - The new "China tourism three-piece set" includes dental care, eye care, and traditional Chinese medicine, appealing to tourists looking for affordable healthcare options [35][46]. - Many foreign visitors are now incorporating dental check-ups and treatments into their travel itineraries, with dental services in China being significantly cheaper than in their home countries [42][45]. - The trend reflects a broader consumer behavior shift towards seeking value and cost-effective solutions in healthcare, particularly among the global middle class [51]. Group 5: Impact on Local Healthcare Resources - Concerns about foreign patients occupying local healthcare resources are largely unfounded, as regulations limit the proportion of international medical services to 10% of total hospital services [54]. - Foreign patients typically pay higher fees for services compared to local patients, which can be 6-12 times more for registration and 8-12 times more for examinations and hospital stays [56][57]. - The increase in foreign patients is seen as a new revenue stream for the domestic healthcare system rather than a strain on resources [58].
