Hong Kong's medical system
The Hong Kong medical system is divided into public and private medical systems.
Public medical institutions mainly provide a medical insurance network for the general public, and citizens can enjoy high-quality medical services at a low price, but the disadvantage is that the waiting time is too long.
Private medical institutions are much more flexible and can take care of the more personal needs of patients. Therefore, some citizens who can afford it will choose private medical care.
Reminder: bring Hong Kong ID card!
Remember to bring your ID when you go to the doctor! (PS: Both permanent and non-permanent residents can enjoy the same fees)
In Hong Kong, there are different charges for visiting public doctors (especially emergency) according to your status. It is $180 per visit for Hong Kong residents and $1230 per visit for non-Hong Kong residents.
The electronic medical records of patients in the computers of all public hospitals in Hong Kong are interoperable, and the records of patients’ previous visits and hospitalizations in any public hospitals will be displayed; bringing an ID card can also facilitate doctors to confirm their identity.

Emergency? Remember [999]!
Dial 999 and an ambulance will be taken to the emergency room of the nearest public hospital. Ambulances in Hong Kong are free.
After arriving at the hospital, they are divided into critical, critical, urgent, sub-urgent and non-urgent.
Generally speaking, patients in critical condition do not need to wait, and medical staff will arrive immediately. Some patients in non-emergency situations may need to wait a long time. During peak hours, the waiting time may be several hours.
Assuming that you have to wait for referral to a specialist through emergency referrals, you will have to wait more than a few hours, but at least a year and a half.
There are also some private hospitals in Hong Kong that provide round-the-clock emergency services. However, these private hospitals are concentrated in the more prosperous areas on Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, and the charges are relatively expensive. The advantage is that you don't have to wait too long.
