Considering treatment in Lecheng?
Get clear answers first, then decide with confidence.

Lecheng is China's dedicated medical pilot zone, where a range of international innovative medicines, devices and advanced programmes are available under special licence. We focus on Lecheng only, in two areas: oncology and type 2 diabetes management. The first conversation is free. Nothing starts until the scope and fees are confirmed in writing — and every medical decision rests with the hospital and its doctors.

Available in Chinese and English.

China's medical pilot zone

Innovative medicines, devices and programmes arrive here earlier under special licensing. Before you travel, we answer three questions: Can you go? Which hospital is right? How does the process work?

Two focus areas only Oncology and type 2 diabetes — depth over breadth.
  • You don't need everything ready to talk to us — no passport scans, no payment details, no full medical file. Just tell us what you'd like to arrange.
  • Two separate costs, from day one: our coordination fee, and the hospital's medical fees — quoted and charged by the hospital itself.
  • If something isn't confirmed, we say so. We don't guess prices, promise outcomes, or guarantee that a hospital will accept your case.

Which of these sounds like you?

You don't need to know which programme you want yet. Choose the starting point closest to your situation, and we'll work through the rest together, step by step.

Why Lecheng: four things that set it apart

The Lecheng Pilot Zone is China's only medical pilot zone of its kind. Its special licences make it a primary gateway for innovative medicines and devices entering China, with a care pathway that runs from early screening and precision diagnostics to advanced treatment and rehabilitation.

01
Licensed medical accessInnovative medicines and devices not yet marketed elsewhere in China may be used within the zone, subject to approval.
02
Licensed researchReal-world clinical studies and translational applications are piloted in the zone first; individual programmes are subject to official registration.
03
Two focus areasWe cover oncology and type 2 diabetes management only — depth over breadth.
04
On-the-ground coordinationAssessment, treatment, longer stays and follow-up visits are coordinated item by item and confirmed in a written plan Details — To be confirmed

Two areas — start with yours

Oncology

Options you can raise with a hospital, grouped by diagnostics, targeted and immunotherapy medicines, and local treatments and advanced devices. Every item depends on the hospital's assessment and quote — no bundled packages, no headline totals.

Type 2 diabetes management

We start with the framework that matters: specialist assessment, in-depth screening, continuous glucose monitoring, complication management and long-term follow-up. Stem-cell programmes, including the hospital offering them and the approved scope, are covered separately on the diabetes page; we publish no prices for them, and course length and scheduling follow the hospital’s written arrangement.

Hospitals, doctors and equipment in Lecheng

For our two areas, oncology and type 2 diabetes, we have gathered public information about the relevant hospitals in Lecheng: their medical teams, equipment and techniques. Sources are hospital websites, the Lecheng Pilot Zone Administration and published news reports. Whether a case is accepted, and which doctor sees you, is decided by the hospital.

Four steps, that's all

For your first message, please don't send passport scans, payment details or complete medical records — just tell us what you'd like to arrange.

1

Tell us what you need

A free conversation — assessment, an appointment, or a complex case — in the language you're most comfortable with.

2

Agree what help you need

Together, we clarify what needs coordinating, which records to prepare, and which decisions only a hospital can make.

3

Confirm scope and fees in writing

The scope, our fee and the timeline are confirmed in writing before anything starts — no verbal promises.

4

The hospital handles the medicine

Case acceptance, treatment plans, quotes and treatment itself are decided and delivered by the hospital and its doctors. We handle the coordination in between.

Clear boundaries, up front

  • Our coordination fee and the hospital's medical fees are separate. The hospital quotes and charges its own fees; our coordination fee is set out separately in the written confirmation.
  • We are not a hospital. We don't diagnose or recommend treatment, and we can't guarantee that any hospital will accept a case or that any treatment will work.
  • We don't guess prices. Nothing listed on this site carries a price; your costs depend on the hospital's assessment of your case and its quote.
  • We do not arrange visas or issue invitation letters; only the treating hospital can issue an invitation letter. See the Process & Visa page for how visas work Our service scope — To be confirmed
