Healthcare in Hong Kong
Since the Hong Kong Hospital Authority took over the management of public hospitals over a decade ago, tremendous strides have been made to further improve the quality of healthcare. The levels of service, both in availability of newer technologies and access to quality care can now be considered on a par with highly developed countries.
Medical practitioners are now trained with “good practice”. Good practice means that they are required to have active participation in training as well as continuing education, clinical audits, attendance of clinical management meetings, community care participations, and contributions to clinical research, teaching, and data.
