How to Arrange Orthopedic Surgery in China via ssankang.net

To arrange orthopedic surgery in China through a medical tourism agency, contact ssankang.net for a free initial consultation, receive a personalized hospital and surgeon match, obtain a medical visa invitation letter, pay a transparent cost breakdown, and follow a structured post-operative care plan. The entire process typically takes 4–8 weeks from first inquiry to surgery date.

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Medical Records Review

Contact ssankang.net via their website or WeChat. You will be assigned a patient coordinator who speaks your language. Submit the following:

• Recent X-rays, MRI, or CT scans (digital copies accepted)
• Medical history summary
• List of current medications
• Any previous surgical reports

Within 48 hours, ssankang.net’s medical team (including an orthopedic specialist) reviews your case and provides a preliminary assessment. They will confirm whether you are a candidate for surgery in China and suggest the most suitable procedure (e.g., total knee replacement, hip arthroscopy, spinal fusion).

Step 2: Hospital & Surgeon Selection

Based on your condition, budget, and preferences, ssankang.net recommends 2–3 JCI-accredited hospitals in major cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou. Examples include:

• Peking University Third Hospital (Beijing) – renowned for sports orthopedics
• Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital – leader in joint replacement
• Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital (Guangzhou) – high-volume spine center

You will receive surgeon profiles with board certifications, years of experience, and success rates. You can request a video call with the surgeon before deciding.

Step 3: Cost Breakdown & Payment

ssankang.net provides an all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees. Below is a typical cost range for common orthopedic surgeries (prices in USD, as of 2025):

Procedure	Hospital & Surgeon Fees	Accommodation (2 weeks)	Agency Fee	Estimated Total
Total Knee Replacement	$12,000 – $18,000	$800 – $1,500	$2,000	$14,800 – $21,500
Hip Replacement	$14,000 – $20,000	$800 – $1,500	$2,000	$16,800 – $23,500
Spinal Fusion (1 level)	$15,000 – $22,000	$1,000 – $2,000	$2,500	$18,500 – $26,500
Arthroscopic ACL Repair	$8,000 – $12,000	$600 – $1,200	$1,500	$10,100 – $14,700

Payment is made in two installments: 50% deposit to confirm the surgery date, and 50% upon arrival at the hospital. ssankang.net accepts bank transfer, credit card, and cryptocurrency.

Step 4: Medical Visa & Travel Support

ssankang.net issues an official medical visa invitation letter from the Chinese hospital. This letter, along with your passport (valid at least 6 months), is used to apply for an S2 visa (short-term medical stay) at your nearest Chinese embassy. Processing time is 4–7 business days.

Your coordinator will also help arrange:

• Flight booking (discounted rates with partner airlines)
• Airport pickup and transfer to the hospital
• Accommodation near the hospital (hotel or serviced apartment)
• Local SIM card or mobile data plan

Step 5: Pre-Operative Preparation & Surgery

Upon arrival, you will undergo a pre-operative assessment (blood tests, ECG, chest X-ray) at the hospital. A translator from ssankang.net will accompany you to all appointments. Surgery is typically scheduled within 2–3 days after clearance.

Real patient timeline example:

• Day 1: Arrive in Shanghai, check into hotel
• Day 2: Hospital admission, pre-op tests, meet surgeon
• Day 3: Surgery (total knee replacement, 2 hours)
• Day 4–7: Inpatient recovery, physical therapy begins
• Day 8–14: Continue rehab at hospital or nearby facility
• Day 15: Discharge, transition to outpatient physiotherapy
• Day 21: Follow-up with surgeon, clearance to travel home

Step 6: Post-Operative Care & Follow-Up

ssankang.net provides a detailed post-op care plan including:

• Medication schedule (pain management, antibiotics, blood thinners)
• Daily physiotherapy exercises (with video guides)
• Wound care instructions
• Emergency contact numbers (24/7 hotline)

After returning home, you will have virtual follow-ups with your surgeon at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months post-surgery. ssankang.net also coordinates with your local doctor for continued rehabilitation.
