Identify the main campus on Jinbi Road
The First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province is also known as Kunhua Hospital. This page covers its main campus at 157 Jinbi Road, Xishan District, Kunming. It is a general hospital offering care across several specialties in the central city, and is one institution to contact when hospital treatment is needed. Its name differs from Kunming First People's Hospital. Include "Yunnan Province" in full when taking a taxi, showing an address or completing insurance forms to avoid going to the wrong hospital.
The hospital's official international medical introduction also mentions the east campus, and some wording describes plans for phased opening. Do not use an old development plan to determine which campus currently provides a service. When booking international care, tests or a specialist visit, first confirm the campus, building and check-in point. Photographs of the main campus on this page cannot identify the east campus entrance.
Contacting international medical services
The official English introduction gives the International Medical Department's number as +86 871 63646550. It describes help from bilingual clinical or service staff with communication and appointment coordination, along with Chinese-English medical summaries and bills. Visitors needing English assistance can start with this specific department, explaining their symptoms, preferred specialty, documents and available visit times.
The introduction does not describe every ordinary outpatient clinic or every shift as providing English service. Confirm the available language, how the booking is confirmed and the fees when you contact the department. In particular, international medical services do not mean that no appointment is needed, every procedure is available on arrival or insurance is automatically billed directly. If you need translated records, ask which documents can be provided and when, then confirm your insurer's reimbursement requirements.
Ordinary outpatient care and cost records
The website footer lists the general outpatient contact as +86 871 63645556 and the general duty office as +86 871 63639921. Start with the outpatient number for ordinary clinic questions and the International Medical Department for international services. Explain what you need rather than calling one department without context. Bring your passport, a list of medicines you currently take and previous test results. Include generic drug names and doses where possible.
Short-term visitors using passports should confirm registration procedures, which original documents are required and payment channels in advance. Keep registration, test and medicine bills along with diagnostic documents, and check that your name matches your passport before leaving. These are suggestions to help with further treatment and insurance paperwork, not a promise that a particular insurer will accept every document or cover the costs.
Emergencies and planned visits need different approaches
The hospital has an emergency-care entry point, but international medical and ordinary outpatient enquiry numbers do not replace emergency rescue. For severe acute symptoms or when you cannot safely reach a hospital yourself, call 120 and follow the operator's instructions. Do not delay emergency care while waiting for an English-language appointment. Clinical staff decide triage and treatment according to the condition, not the timing of an outpatient booking.
The telephone numbers and international service information on this page were checked against the hospital website on 11 November 2026. If you need assistance in a particular language throughout a visit, special tests or insurance arrangements, keep a record of what has been confirmed. If the campus or department changes, follow the hospital's specific instructions rather than inferring immediate capabilities from its size or historical reputation.
