立法會十九題:公營醫療收費改革的實施情況及成效

以下是今日(十月七日)在立法會會議上陳克勤議員的提問和醫務衞生局局長盧寵茂教授的書面答覆︰ 問題: 公營醫療收費改革(收費改革)各項措施已實施近一年。就此,政府可否告知本會: (一)與去年同期相比,收費改革實施前後的以下數據比較為何:(i)醫院管理局(醫管局)的整體收入及開支、(ii)普通科門診及專科門診的平均輪候時間(包括新症及舊症),以及(iii)醫管局轄下公立醫院及診所已開立藥單但病人最終未有領取藥物的藥單數量和所涉藥物的成本; (二)有否監察或統計,私營醫療服務(例如私家診所及私家醫院)在實施收費改革後出現加價情況;如有,詳情為何;如否,原因為何; (三)有否開展正式調查或統計市民對收費改革的滿意度及反饋意見;如有,詳情為何;如否,會否考慮開展相關研究; (四)會否考慮擴大豁免公營醫療服務收費的對象涵蓋範圍,例如擴展至現正領取長者生活津貼的年滿65至74歲長者; (五)為分流急症服務,醫管局會否考慮擴充夜間及公眾假期的門診服務,並增設24小時遙距醫療諮詢熱線,以解答市民的即時醫療查詢;及 (六)鑑於當局於本年一月二十八日回覆本人質詢時表示,政府現時並無計劃修訂《醫院管理局條例》(第113章)(《條例》),但有意見認為醫療收費調整涉及廣大市民利益及公共財政,當局會否重新考慮修訂《條例》,規定日後所有涉及公營醫療收費的重大調整均須經由行政長官會同行政會議批准或經本會相關程序審議;如會,詳情為何;如否,原因為何? 答覆: 主席: 就陳克勤議員的提問,經諮詢醫院管理局(醫管局)後,現回覆如下: 公營醫療收費改革首階段自二○二六年一月一日實施,旨在有策略地重組公營醫療服務的高額度補貼架構,令公共醫療系統有限的財政及人力資源能夠更精準地重新分配,並投放於支援「貧、急、重、危」四類病人。這項改革的核心目標是確保公共醫療系統的長遠可持續性,讓寶貴的公帑能夠用得其所,集中資源服務最弱勢及最有需要的群體。 在照顧「貧」困病人方面,改革顯著擴大了醫療費用減免機制的覆蓋範圍,潛在受惠人數由過往約90萬人大幅增加至約200萬人。截至九月三十日,醫管局共接獲331 951宗醫療費用減免申請,當中300 285宗獲批,批核率逾90%。獲批全額醫療費用減免的人數由以往全年少於1.4萬人增至超過25萬人,在現時已獲豁免醫療收費的超過25萬名綜合社會保障援助(綜援)計劃受助人及約37萬名75歲或以上長者生活津貼(長生津)受惠人之上,為更多低收入家庭提供免費醫療服務,充分體現了資源向貧困病人傾斜的政策意圖。 在處理「急」症服務方面,改革引導病人更合理地使用急症室服務。今年首九個月,醫管局轄下18間急症室共錄得1 404 504人次應診,較去年同期減少0.9%。當中第四及第五類別(次緊急及非緊急)個案減少6.8%,非緊急個案減幅更達17.5%,顯示改革有效分流非緊急病人。與此同時,第一及第
