The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority:

     To dovetail with the Government's initiative to develop Chinese Medicine (CM) in Hong Kong, the 18 Chinese Medicine Centres for Training and Research operated under tripartite collaboration model involving the Hospital Authority (HA), non-governmental organisations and local universities will provide new Government subsidised chinese medicine services starting from March 2 (Monday). The CMCTRs will also be renamed as Chinese Medicine Clinics cum Training and Research Centre (CM Clinics).

     Under the new service model, CM Clinics will provide quota-based Government susidised services to eligible person. Provision of subsidised services will include general consultation, and also treatment-related acupuncture and bone setting/Tui-na.  $120 will be charged per item during each attendance.  Maximum number of doses of Chinese Medicine products prescribed will also be increased from two to five for general consultation patients based on clinical judgement.  Fees will be waived for Comprehensive Social Security Assistance recipients and the Higher Old Age Living Allowance recipients aged 75 or above.

     In addition to Government susidised services, CM Clinics will continue to provide their existing non-Government subsidised services for patients.
 
     "Chinese medicine has been incorporated into the healthcare system in Hong Kong, the new service model allowed eligible persons to have more choices in subsidised CM services. The CM Clinics will continue to provide training opportunities for Chinese Medicine practitioners and facilitate the development of scientific research for nurturing more Chinese medicine professionals,” the spokesperson added.
