A “Hong Kong-style” private hospital - the first-ever port hospital offering Cantonese-speaking services opened in Shenzhen on Wednesday, with hopes of being included in the Health Care Voucher program to facilitate access for northbound patients.
Located next to Luohu Port, the comprehensive hospital provides a range of services, including dental care and magnetic resonance imaging, while featuring seven specialist departments such as ophthalmology and gynecology.
The hospital will be operated by Hong Kong’s C-MER Eye Care Group. Signage inside the hospital will be displayed in traditional Chinese, and all staff will be proficient in Cantonese.
The group's founder, Dennis Lam Shun-chiu, noted that while the hospital aims to attract northbound patients, its services are not yet incorporated into the Health Care Voucher program.
He explained that the hospital needs to convince the relevant professionals that its management qualifies for inclusion in the program as a new medical facility, also expressing hope that the hospital would be granted access to patient’s electronic health records with the Hospital Authority.
Meanwhile, the hospital announced plans to recruit more doctors from Hong Kong to promote healthcare collaboration between the two cities and better serve residents of the Greater Bay Area.
CKJ Shenzhen Hospital Hospital aims to provide high-quality medical services at a competitive price, taking advantage of its convenient location, advanced medical facilities, and top-notch Hong Kong-style management model. The hospital will offer quality, cost-effective, and diverse healthcare service options for residents of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and the Greater Bay Area.
This medical project marks a new milestone in the cooperation between Shenzhen and Hong Kong in healthcare, promoting the “Three Connections” in medical services: the connection of pharmaceuticals and medical devices, the connection of talent, and the connection of data. To celebrate this significant milestone in cross-border medical services, CKJ Shenzhen Hospital Hospital hosted a series of exciting opening events, inviting distinguished guests including Jiang Likun, Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of Shenzhen, Li Huiqiong, a member of the National People’s Congress from Hong Kong, Fan Defan, Secretary of the Luohu District Committee, and other prominent figures such as Lin Shunchao, founder of C-MER Eye Care Group, to officiate the hospital opening. Over a dozen members of the National People’s Congress, Legislative Council members, and various specialists from Hong Kong also attended the celebration to witness the establishment of this port hospital.
Deepening healthcare integration and creating a diverse new model for cross-border medical services
Covering an area of approximately 10,000 square meters, CKJ Shenzhen Hospital is located in a prime area just a 4-minute walk from the Luohu Port. The hospital combines the advantages of the Hong Kong medical system with the local healthcare needs in Shenzhen, serving as a comprehensive facility that integrates medical treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation. Currently, the hospital has established multiple departments, including dentistry, ophthalmology, medical imaging, chronic disease management, traditional Chinese medicine, internal medicine, and surgery, gradually building a comprehensive medical platform that covers various specialties.
Li Huiqiong, a member of the National People’s Congress from Hong Kong, stated during the celebration that with the further integration of cross-border healthcare, it provides residents of Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area with more medical options, helping to alleviate the issue of long wait times.
