When to use it
保险 (bǎoxiǎn) means 'insurance'; literally 'protect risk'. For Mainland residents, the government health card is called 医保卡 (yībǎo kǎ, medical insurance card). For foreign travelers, you'll want to say 旅游保险 (lǚyóu bǎoxiǎn, travel insurance) or 国际保险 (guójì bǎoxiǎn, international insurance). Important: most Chinese hospitals require you to pay upfront and claim reimbursement later (先付款后报销, xiān fùkuǎn hòu bàoxiāo), so keep all receipts (发票, fāpiào). Bring a printed Chinese-language insurance letter if possible; staff may not accept English documents at smaller hospitals.
