  "detail": "Official national number: “12356” (digits exactly as printed). The National Health Commission (NHC) established it, coordinated with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, as China’s unified national psychological-assistance hotline number: https://www.nhc.gov.cn/yzygj/c100068/202412/49a1a65386cd4be582d4702fd0926ee8.shtml . It is not one national call centre: provincial/local health administrations connect the short code to locally operated psychological-assistance lines; the national notice says each prefecture-level city should ordinarily have at least one line, with provincial service where a city cannot provide one. Services include mental-health education, counselling, psychological support and crisis intervention. Hours: the national minimum is at least 18 hours per day per line, not a uniform 24-hour guarantee; local schedules vary (for example, the official Hubei announcement gives 08:00–02:00 daily: https://www.hbhr.gov.cn/hrqxxgk/bmptlj/qzbm/hrqwjj/fdzdgknr/hygq/202507/t20250723_715044.html , while Shenyang’s provincial-health-commission page states 24 hours × 365 days: https://wsjk.ln.gov.cn/wsjk/index/syxwxx/dfxx/2025043010172915407/index.shtml ). Languages: neither the NHC establishing notice nor its 2025 implementation notice specifies a nationally guaranteed language set; language availability is therefore local, and should not be represented as a national multilingual promise. Cost: the counselling/service is described by official local sources as public-interest/free, but normal telephone communication charges may still apply; an official county-government notice states free consultation up to 30 minutes while callers bear normal telephone charges: https://www.xjblk.gov.cn/xjblk/c119963/202508/6b39c93e7d3749cc8da0ab306d088daa.shtml . Thus “free call” is not established nationally; the precise safe statement is free psychological-assistance consultation subject to local terms and possible carrier charges. Currentness check: the NHC required nationwide connection by 2025-05-01, the State Council-hosted 2025 implementation notice repeats that requirement (https://www.gov.cn/zhengce/zhengceku/202502/content_7003644.htm), and a May 2026 NHC bulletin still directs authorities to use 12356 and ensure stable operation (https://www.nhc.gov.cn/bgt/c100270fg/202605/862891628c9442f9835d6b259332161c/files/2026%E5%B9%B4%E5%9B%BD%E5%AE%B6%E5%8D%AB%E7%94%9F%E5%81%A5%E5%BA%B7%E5%A7%94%E5%91%98%E4%BC%9A%E5%85%AC%E6%8A%A5%E7%AC%AC3%E6%9C%9F-20260522153513428.pdf). I did not call or contact the line. I found no separate primary nationwide suicide-only line in the national notices; 12356 is the primary unified line and explicitly includes crisis intervention.",

(1) NHC notice URL (nhc.gov.cn/yzygj/...49a1a653...) returns HTTP 412 to non-browser clients, so I read the identical text on the State Council mirror https://www.gov.cn/zhengce/zhengceku/202412/content_6994470.htm (国卫医政函〔2024〕259号, dated 2024-12-06). It confirms that NHC coordinated with MIIT to set \"12356\" as the unified national psychological-assistance number and set a 2025-05-01 00:00 deadline. It says that in principle each 设区的市 opens at least 1 line with at least 2 seats, providing 每日不少于18小时 service, with the provincial line as fallback. Services include 心理危机干预. It says nothing about languages or cost, as the contribution states. (2) The gov.cn 2025 notice (content_7003644) repeats the 5月1日0时 requirement and the per-city/crisis-intervention wording. (3) The Hubei page says 早8:00至次日2:00 (18h) and 免费. Small labelling point: it is the Huarong District (Ezhou) health bureau relaying the Hubei provincial launch, not a provincial page itself. It is still official. (4) The Liaoning health commission page on Shenyang says 24小时×365天 公益免费. (5) The Barkol county page says free consultation up to 30 minutes, 来电者只需要承担正常的电话通讯费用. (6) The NHC Gazette 2026 No.3 PDF (downloaded in full, 4.2 MB) contains 国卫医政发〔2026〕8号. It directs authorities to 积极发挥12356心理援助热线作用…保证稳定运行 and to build provincial 12356 platforms, which supports currency as of May 2026. Every field matches its source, and the cautious framing of hours, languages and cost is accurate.",

(1) The nhc.gov.cn notice URL returned HTTP 412 to curl, so I read the same notice on the gov.cn mirror, content_6994470 (国卫医政函〔2024〕259号). It confirms that NHC 协调工业和信息化部 to set “12356” as the 全国统一心理援助热线电话号码, with a 2025年5月1日0时 deadline. In principle each 设区的市 runs at least one line with at least 2 seats and 每日提供不少于18小时, and the provincial line is the fallback. Services include 心理危机干预. It says nothing about languages or cost.

(3) The hbhr.gov.cn page is the Huarong District 卫健局 relaying the Hubei provincial launch. It is dated 2025-03-28, although the URL path says 202507. It says 免费 and 每日18小时, 早8:00至次日2:00, which matches. (4) The wsjk.ln.gov.cn page (2025-04-30, Shenyang) says 24小时×365天的公益免费服务, which matches. (5) The xjblk.gov.cn Barkol county notice (2025-08-15) gives 免费咨询服务 up to 30分钟 and says 来电者只需要承担正常的电话通讯费用. That matches the contribution's cost caveat.

None of the national sources names a language set, so the contribution is right not to claim one. Every field matches its source. The contribution presents the hours and cost limits accurately. Minor point: the Hubei page is a district relay of the provincial announcement, not a provincial page.",
