Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure

China Healthcare Navigator may display advertising to help cover the cost of running and updating the site. Advertising does not turn an advertiser into a recommended hospital, doctor, insurer, or medical service.

Google advertising

The site uses or may use Google AdSense. Google and other advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads. More information appears in the site’s Privacy Policy.

Ads are supplied through an advertising system and may be selected automatically. Their appearance does not mean China Healthcare Navigator has tested, approved, or verified the advertiser’s medical claims, prices, credentials, or suitability for a particular patient.

Editorial independence

Advertisers do not decide which hospitals, departments, doctors, service routes, or warnings appear in the editorial guides. Payment for an advertisement does not improve an institution’s position in a hospital shortlist or condition guide.

The site does not currently rely on an undisclosed affiliate relationship. If a link can generate a commission, or if a company pays for sponsorship, placement, review, travel, or access, that relationship should be labelled close to the relevant content. A commission does not increase the price automatically, but readers should still compare the hospital’s direct route and direct price.

Before paying a medical service

An advertisement or sponsored listing is not medical advice. Verify the legal entity, hospital relationship, doctor and department, service scope, hospital charges, service fees, refund terms, privacy handling, and who controls the patient’s records. Be cautious with guaranteed appointments, guaranteed admission, guaranteed surgery, or treatment-outcome claims.
