VII. Healthcare

Guiding Principle

157.         Hong Kong has a robust and reliable healthcare system, staffed by excellent healthcare workers of high professional standards. The provision of quality and affordable healthcare services to the general public is indeed a proud achievement.

158.         Our rapidly ageing population has increased demand for healthcare services. The growing prevalence of certain diseases, advances in healthcare technology and public expectations for healthcare services to keep up with the latest medical practices have led to a rise in medical costs. We must tackle the root of the problem to ensure the sustainable development of our healthcare system.
