Fudan University Institute of Hospital Management (复旦大学医院管理研究所) specialty reputation ranking. Note that Fudan's whole-hospital list assigns letter grades (A++++–A) and explicitly does not order hospitals sharing the same grade.
Fudan states that its ranking's content and data may not be reproduced or cited by any website, media organisation or individual without the institute's written consent.

Ward and room rates
Published daily rates for an inpatient stay, wherever the patient is admitted. In Chinese hospitals the multiplier is ward class, not privacy: a higher-grade ward costs many times more than a general one, while a single room costs only a little more than a shared one.
- / dayGeneral ward bed¥50
- / dayThree-bed room¥60
- / dayIntensive care unit bed¥60
- / daySingle room¥80
- / dayISO-7 cleanroom bed¥300
- / daySpecial protective ward bed¥1,100
Published daily rates. The spread across room types is small — a single room costs ¥30 more than a shared one — while the spread across ward classes is 22 times. The multiplier in a Chinese hospital is ward class, not privacy.
| Item | Published price |
|---|---|
General ward bed Ward rate · Standard public ward | $7/ day¥50 |
Three-bed room Ward rate · Standard public ward A three-bed room costs only ¥20/day more than a general bed, and a single room only ¥30 more. The room-type spread in China is small — it is ward class, not privacy, that drives cost. | $9/ day¥60 |
Single room Ward rate · Standard public ward Paying for a single room in China is a cheap proposition. Paying for a higher-grade ward is not — see the special protective ward figure, which is 22× the general ward. | $12/ day¥80 |
Intensive care unit bed Ward rate · Standard public ward | $9/ day¥60 |
ISO-7 cleanroom bed Ward rate · Standard public ward Used for transplant and other protected-ward protocols. | $45/ day¥300 |
Special protective ward bed Ward rate · Special protective ward 22× the general ward rate. This is the single best-sourced illustration of what drives cost in Chinese hospitals, and the reason a patient should ask about ward class rather than room type. | $164/ day¥1,100 |
