How to visit a doctor

1. I'm covered by China's social insurance. Can I use medical insurance in Shenzhen's medical institutions? 

参加中国社会保险的外籍人士可以在深圳的医疗机构使用医保吗？

If you are covered by China's social insurance, you can use medical insurance in many medical institutions in the city, including public and private ones. However, some private medical institutions and the international division of some public hospitals only take private health insurance. You are advised to consult the medical institution you plan to visit beforehand. 

如您有参加中国社会保险，您可在全市许多医疗机构使用医保。需注意的是，部分私立医疗机构及部分公立医院国际部仅接受私人保险。建议您在就医前提前向医疗机构进行咨询。
