How the cost estimate is calculated
The result follows the reference model. It does not predict your actual treatment bill.
The calculation
This calculator uses MediLink's reference model. The four-country pricing table uses MyChinaMed's separate estimates. These figures come from different sources and are not a single fee schedule.
The medical estimate uses the midpoint of a procedure's range, multiplied by the selected tier and rounded to the nearest dollar. The flight estimate uses the midpoint of the departure-region and cabin range, also rounded to the nearest dollar.
Hotel cost is the number of stay days multiplied by the nightly rate. The model then adds a fixed $300 visa allowance and, when selected, $800 for interpreting or companion support. It adds a 10% buffer to this subtotal, rounded to the nearest dollar.
The support allowance is illustrative, not a confirmed SeekDoctor service fee. It does not replace the separate prices and scopes listed on our Services page.
The arrival city is a planning input but does not affect the source formula. The model counts each stay day as one hotel night. It does not calculate flight dates or a treatment itinerary.

What still needs a quote
The medical range does not specify a hospital, doctor, diagnosis, test list, treatment protocol or complication allowance. Ground transport, meals, extra nights, travel insurance, customs duties and service-package fees are not separate line items in this model. The buffer does not confirm that these costs are covered.
The source gives no underlying hospital tariff, airfare dataset or dated hotel quotation for its benchmarks. It does not state how many days the fixed support allowance covers. Ask SeekDoctor to confirm the included services, provider availability and actual charges before travelling.
