China already has excellent tertiary hospitals. What international patients often lack is the coordination around discharge — language, pharmacies, suitable accommodation, transport back to follow-up appointments, and nursing at the recovery residence. CrossCare Recovery Suites China is built as a partner network, not a facility.
