Booking via the 114 Platform (English)
Beijing's 114 platform is the friendliest booking route for foreign patients in China: full English, passport registration, and 15 top public hospitals on one system.
What the 114 platform is
The 114 platform is Beijing's official appointment network (originally the 114 phone information service). It now runs an English booking service that lets international patients register with a passport and book appointments end-to-end online at 15 Beijing hospitals.
Hospitals on the English service
Covered hospitals include:
- Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH)
- Peking University Third Hospital
- Xuanwu Hospital
- Fuwai Hospital
- Beijing Tiantan Hospital
- Tsinghua Changgung Hospital
- and 9 more across the city
The list evolves — check the 114 English interface for the current roster.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 114 English service free?
The booking service itself is free; you pay the hospital's registration fee. Confirm current fees on the platform.
Can non-Beijing hospitals use 114?
The English service is a Beijing initiative. For other cities, use WeChat Mini Programs or the hospital's own international department.
What if I need to change my appointment?
Most slots can be cancelled or rescheduled through the platform. Do it as early as possible to avoid no-show penalties.
