First question. LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 18 May 2016 9547 Elderly Health Care Voucher Scheme 1. DR CHIANG LAI-WAN (in Cantonese): Under the current Elderly Health Care Voucher Scheme (EHCVS), the Government provides health care vouchers with a total value of $2,000 per person annually to eligible elderly persons aged 70 or above to subsidize their use of private primary care services. The unused health care vouchers each year may be retained and used in future, subject to a cap of $4,000 on the cumulative value of the vouchers. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (1) as the information provided by the authorities to the Finance Committee of this Council in April this year indicated that in both of the past two years, the annual average values of health care vouchers used by an elderly person had exceeded $2,000, with a significant increase in the value of last year as compared with that of the preceding year, whether the authorities will consider increasing the annual value of health care vouchers so as to ease the burden of medical expenses on the elderly; if they will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; (2) as I have learnt that quite a number of elderly persons need to purchase auxiliary medical equipment and buy medicines at pharmacies, but they may not use health care vouchers for such purposes, whether the authorities will consider relaxing the restrictions on the permitted uses of such vouchers; if they will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and (3) as the population projections published by the Census and Statistics Department in September last year indicated that the percentage of elderly persons aged 65 and above in the population would rise sharply, i.e. from 15% in 2014 to 23% and 30% in 2024 and 2034 respectively, whether the authorities will consider afresh lowering the minimum age requirement for EHCVS to 65 so that more elderly persons will benefit from it; if they will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that? 9548 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 18 May 2016 SECRETARY FOR FOOD AND HEALTH (in Cantonese): President, the Government launched the Elderly Health Care Voucher Pilot Scheme in 2009 to subsidize Hong Kong elders aged 70 or above to use private primary care services, including preventive care services. The scheme was converted from a pilot project into a recurrent programme in 2014. Since the implementation of the EHV Scheme, we have introduced various enhancement measures to give elders a greater flexibility in using the vouchers for private primary care services. For example, the annual voucher amount for an eligible elder has increased progressively from the initial sum of $250 to $2,000, and the financial cap has been revised upward from $3,000 to $4,000. Moreover, the face value of each voucher was changed from $50 to $1 in 2014 to make it more convenient for the elders to use the vouchers. As at end-March 2016, about 5 300 healthcare service providers are enrolled under the Scheme and over 610 000 elders have made use of the vouchers (accounting for about 80% of the eligible elderly population). My reply to the various parts of the question is as follows: (1) and (3) We have made a reply on the Elderly Health Care Voucher Scheme (EHCVS) to the Finance Committee during its examination of Estimates of Expenditure 2016-2017. The figures in the reply show the average amount of vouchers used per elder among those who have made use of the vouchers, with breakdown by age group, during the period from the launching of the Scheme in 2009 up to end 2014 and end 2015. Analysed by year among those elders who have made use of the vouchers, the average amount of vouchers used by an elder in 2014 and 2015 was $1,260 and $1,711 respectively. Most of them (about 85% and 67% respectively) used an amount of $2,000 or less during these two years. As regards the requests for lowering the eligible age for the EHCVS to 65 and increasing the annual voucher amount for an eligible elder, according to the Hong Kong Population Projections 2015-2064 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 18 May 2016 9549 published by the Census and Statistics Department, there will be 930 000 elders aged 70 or above in 2020, which is 1.5 times as much as the existing number of elders using the vouchers, whilst the projected number of elders aged 65 or above is estimated to reach 1.4 million in 2020, which is about twice the number of elders using the vouchers at present.

It is the intention to solicit public views through discussion on four topics, namely, strategic roles of NDAs, people-oriented communities, sustainable living environment and implementation mechanism. This topical note is prepared to provide background information on strategic roles of NDAs with a view to facilitating public discussion on this topic. 1 Background “The Planning and Development Study on North East New Territories” (the NENT Study) commissioned in the late 1990’s, identified Kwu Tung North (KTN), Fanling North (FLN) and Ping Che/Ta Kwu Ling (PC/TKL) as suitable New Development Areas (NDAs). It recommended that KTN, FLN and PC/TKL could proceed as one scheme (Three-In-One Scheme), i.e. an integral whole with shared community facilities, infrastructure and reprovisioning arrangements.
