Coordination and support for international patients in Guangdong
International medical centers · Support in English · Independent, no commissions from hospitals
VIP Cure Trip is a non-medical coordination service. We help patients and families from Switzerland, Germany, Austria and elsewhere with organisation, translation and accompaniment when they want to contact the international medical center of a Guangdong international medical pilot hospital. Medical assessments and decisions are made solely by the hospital's doctors.
Organisational consultation, not medical advice.
What you can rely on
No partnership agreements:
We have no contractual cooperation with any of the hospitals presented. Naming a hospital is not a recommendation and says nothing about treatment outcomes.
Independence:
We receive no commissions or referral fees from hospitals. We are paid only through our own service fee, agreed in writing in advance.
Data protection:
Your records are stored encrypted in Europe [待确认：瑞士/欧盟具体区域] and are sent to a hospital in China only with your separate consent.
What we do – and what we don't
We take care of the organisation:
- Organising and translating your medical records (English/German ↔ Chinese) and forwarding them to the hospital you choose
- Contacting the international medical center and requesting appointments
- Accompaniment and interpreting at consultations [待确认：陪同人员人数]
- Information on entry, accommodation and transfers
- Translating the discharge report and handing it over to your doctor at home
We do not:
- Diagnose, give medical assessments, recommend treatments or choose a treatment
- Judge whether a treatment is suitable for you – that is decided by the hospital's doctors
- Handle payments for medical services – you pay the hospital directly
- Sell package trips (flight, hotel and treatment for one price)

Our principles
We make no medical decisions and do not assess your health. We use your records only to organise, translate and forward them to the hospital. Whether an examination or treatment is an option is assessed by the hospital's doctors. If the hospital advises against travelling, we pass this on to you unchanged. We encourage you to keep your doctors at home involved. Our ethics principles
Frequently asked questions
Is VIP Cure Trip a hospital or a medical practice?
No. VIP Cure Trip is a non-medical coordination service. We organise, translate and accompany. Diagnosis, treatment recommendations and treatment are solely the responsibility of the hospital's doctors.
What is an international medical center in a Chinese hospital?
An international medical center is a physically and organisationally separate area of a hospital with its own team for international and self-paying patients. In Guangdong, pilot hospitals must keep this area separate from basic care.
What does the first consultation cost?
Nothing. The first consultation is free and without obligation. We tell you in writing in advance about any hospital fees for a written opinion and about our service fee.
Do you have contracts with the hospitals you mention?
No. We present Guangdong pilot hospitals based on public information and can help you get in touch. We receive no commissions from hospitals.
Will my health data be sent to China?
Only with your separate, explicit consent for the specific case. Your records are first stored encrypted in Europe [待确认：存储区域瑞士/欧盟].
Do I need to speak Chinese?
No. We support you in English or German [待确认：团队人数和资质] and translate records and conversations with the hospital.
