Immigrate to Hong Kong Focus on Hong Kong News: Recently, a well-known domestic internet medical service website released the 2015 National Medical Behavior Big Data Report, revealing the current situation of medical treatment among Chinese citizens. The report shows that Hong Kong has become a popular destination for out-of-town medical care, and seeking medical treatment in Hong Kong is gradually becoming a trend.
Mobile Healthcare Has Become Mainstream
The 2015 National Medical Behavior Big Data Report shows that because most hospitals release appointments on Mondays, Monday has the highest volume of appointment bookings, with 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM being the peak period. More than 60% of patients use mobile apps or WeChat official accounts to make appointments. Among all users of internet medical services, those born in the 1980s are the primary demographic, accounting for 50.44%. It is worth noting that 6.76% of users were born in the 1960s, indicating that the concept of internet healthcare is gradually gaining popularity and being accepted by an increasingly wide range of people.
Pediatrics Is the Hardest to Book, Obstetrics and Gynecology Has the Highest Booking Volume
The report shows that due to factors such as the scarcity of hospital and doctor resources, the increase in the number of newborns, and medical habits, pediatrics became the department with the most difficult appointment bookings in 2015. Influenced by factors such as the generation born in the 1980s entering the peak childbearing age and the national policy allowing a second child, obstetrics and gynecology also became the department with the highest volume of appointment bookings in 2015.
Hong Kong Becomes a Popular Destination for Out-of-Town Medical Care
In addition, the report also shows that the proportion of out-of-town patients seeking medical care in Hong Kong is as high as 83.77%, which means that for every 10 users who use internet medical services to seek medical care in Hong Kong, more than 8 are from outside the city. Seeking medical treatment in Hong Kong is gradually developing into a trend, which is mainly due to Hong Kong's world-class medical technology, excellent and comprehensive medical equipment, and expert service teams with both integrity and professional competence.
