  1. The briefing discusses a Times report about a Canadian family seeking care in Kunming. One family’s experience cannot predict another patient’s costs or outcome.

  2. A concierge company supplied a figure about its European clients. Without an independent audit or sample size, it is not a market-wide measure.

  3. Before making plans, clarify who will assess eligibility, which hospital is involved, the expected total cost, length of stay, language support and follow-up.
