New choice for Hong Kong people! Shenzhen New Frontier United Family Hospital selected as a service point for Hong Kong elderly medical vouchers

 

On February 19, 2024, the Hong Kong Medical and Health Bureau announced the scope of use of the second batch of Hong Kong Elderly Health Vouchers (hereinafter referred to as "health vouchers") in mainland China. Shenzhen New Wind United Family Hospital (hereinafter referred to as "Shenzhen United Family") was included in the list, and eligible Hong Kong elderly can use the health vouchers at Shenzhen United Family, giving Hong Kong elderly residents or frequent visitors to Shenzhen an additional medical option.
 

 

Co founder and founder of New Wind Tianyu CEO、 United Family Healthcare CEO Wu Qinan said, "We are very pleased that Shenzhen United Family Healthcare has become one of the pilot projects for medical vouchers in the Greater Bay Area. We would like to thank the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's Medical and Health Bureau, Guangdong Province, and Shenzhen Municipal Health Commission for their trust and support. The original intention of medical vouchers is to encourage the elderly to pay more attention to health protection. We will cooperate with the government to do a good job in basic healthcare for the elderly, and hope to provide additional convenient medical options while alleviating some of the medical pressure in Hong Kong.

 

Under the medical voucher scheme, individuals aged 65 or above who hold a valid Hong Kong ID card or a Certificate of Exemption from Registration issued by the Immigration Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government can use the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government's annual medical voucher amount of HKD 2000 (up to a maximum cumulative amount of HKD 8000) to assess the medical needs of the elderly and use it to pay for government designated Shenzhen United Family Clinic medical services. The plan is expected to start in the third quarter of 2024, when elderly people holding medical vouchers can start using the hospital.
 

 

As a comprehensive private hospital based in Shenzhen and connected to the Hong Kong Xiyu Medical Center under the New Wind Tianyu umbrella, with medical services covering the Greater Bay Area, Shenzhen United Family Hospital has been providing appropriate medical services for Hong Kong patients since its establishment, accumulating certain experience. The internationally recognized "Hong Kong style medical services" and some Hong Kong professional doctor teams regularly dispatched to Shenzhen for consultations can benefit more elderly people in Hong Kong, allowing them to enjoy professional, comfortable, and non crowded "one-stop" personalized health management services in Shenzhen.

 

 

Xiao Yihuang, Chief Operating Officer of New Frontier Tianyu Greater Bay Area, stated that the charging standards for Hong Kong medical vouchers are on par with the hospital's own fees and may introduce discounted packages for elderly medical vouchers. The SAR government will also conduct regular spot checks and evaluations of medical voucher usage data to monitor the expansion of hospital medical vouchers and ensure standardized medical behavior. Next, the hospital will fully cooperate with the Hong Kong government to implement medical vouchers in our hospital, ensuring the smooth launch of various services.

 

In order to cater to the medical habits of Hong Kong people, the hospital has equipped doctors and nurses who speak Cantonese and added service windows for Hong Kong people; At the same time, bilingual reports in Chinese and English are available for Hong Kong residents to connect with medical treatment upon returning to Hong Kong. The hospital offers 26 specialized services including general practice, health management, dentistry, and internal and external medicine.
