An English hotline providing advice on Chinese Traditional Medicine operated by Guang'anmen Hospital has been launched in Beijing last week. It aims at promoting the effective use of TCM for oversees patients. There is no charge for the service. One can call 88001800 for the hotline, and the conversation is completely confidential and anonymous. In addition, the hotline will also give answers to inquires regarding short-term training for professionals, one-day educational tour at a local TCM hospital, and internship applications. The hotline doesn't provide emergency help.
