Q: Do advance appointments guarantee a number at a Chinese hospital?

I noticed that many hospitals are now offering advance appointment (预约挂号) services on their websites. But are these a guarantee that a doctor will see you or do you still have to go to the hospital at the break of dawn to stand in line with scores of others?

If you set up an appointment and your there around the time your supposed to be there and your not late than you should have no problem with waiting in line for long.

In my experience just because you have an appointment doesn't mean the other party will ever show up. Having said that, I hope this new service you are talking about is going to work the way they have planned it.  However, I wouldn't put money on it just yet.

I didn't know China had any organization involved in anything, it's kind of the disgust I hate about China, and even part of it's charm

A:I had a similar experience in HK. If I recall correctly, before or at the Z visa application, I had to submit ME from the ordinary HK clinic, where I explained why I need ME and I asked them to examine only necessary things (I don't remember the cost ...), and then ... I got Z stamp and when back in China, I had to complete another RP ME, which was on the employer, i.e. included in the Contract ...We've never discussed refund of payment for HK ME with my employer. Year 2013 ...I'd say, that is a regular thingy embassies around the world require, before issuing visas for LT stay in the country. "Vladimir Vladimiro-Witch ras-Putin" (LOL@your pronunciation ..) demands the same thingy before granting LT stay in Ruski.  ... Haa, 2013 was the Snowden's year. I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ... Cost for the ME in HK was around HK$ 2000/200 EUR, and ME was kind of swift, quicker and way shorter than on the mainland ... -- icnif77
