Shandong University — directly managed by the National Health Commission

Founded 1890Lixia

Overview

Qilu Hospital is the flagship teaching hospital of Shandong University and one of the oldest institutions in China, tracing its lineage to the Huamei Hospital founded in 1890. It is directly managed by the National Health Commission, which is a stronger institutional guarantee than plain university affiliation.

At 4,360 beds it is a lead unit and principal body of the first batch of China's national regional medical centres for general medicine — a designation that marks it as a referral destination for complex cases across the province rather than a local hospital.

For an international patient the decisive detail is that its International Medical Department has been operating since November 2019 and takes direct bookings.

Before you rely on this: The hospital runs a full real-name appointment system and publishes a penalty that constrains a patient's own booking behaviour: three no-shows in a month, or six cancellations in a week on one account, cause the system to lock the account and block booking for six months, and three cancellations in one day block booking for that day. Real-name booking also means a patient without a Chinese national ID number cannot book at all.

Reputation rankings

Positions and grades as published, with the source and year attached.

This hospital holds a provincially designated Grade III-A, awarded by the province rather than nationally. It is a real designation and a good sign, but it is not the same award as a national Grade III-A, and the two are printed identically on most English hospital listings.

Cost guidance

Fee figures appear here only where the hospital publishes them. A published price is a price line, never the whole invoice — always confirm a quote directly.
