On the afternoon of the 9th, a hospital management-themed conference was held, bringing together experts and scholars from Huizhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, and Macao to discuss the current status and future development of hospital management in their respective regions. The event highlighted the importance of collaboration and innovation in healthcare systems across the Greater Bay Area.
Medical professionals need not fear job loss, as artificial intelligence is seen as a supportive tool rather than a replacement. Yuan Xiangdong, deputy dean of Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital, emphasized that AI can enhance hospital operations and improve efficiency, but it will not take the place of human expertise. He pointed out that while AI has made progress in areas like health management, diagnostics, and medical supply chains, challenges remain, such as uneven distribution of resources and issues with data quality. For AI to fully benefit the medical field, there must be improvements in technical development, policy frameworks, and a shift in mindset among healthcare workers. "Medical staff should focus on leveraging their experience and data to boost productivity," he added.
In Macau, cancer patients receive free treatment at public hospitals, contributing to improved survival rates. According to Li Weicheng, medical director of Renhe Grand Hospital in Macau, the local healthcare system combines government-run and private institutions, with public hospitals receiving significant government support. Residents have access to comprehensive care, including free services at health centers and emergency treatment at public hospitals.
Shenzhen is exploring new models for public hospital management. Hong Kong University Shenzhen Hospital, a large public hospital funded by the Shenzhen government, has adopted modern management practices from Hong Kong. Dean Lu Chongmao outlined four key reforms: management, clinical practice, medical care, and service delivery. These include separating powers, implementing full appointment systems, and introducing innovative fee structures. The hospital also focuses on reducing unnecessary procedures and costs, promoting green surgery, and building trust between doctors and patients.
Another example shared at the conference was Shenzhen Luohu Hospital Group, which integrated general hospitals, community health centers, and specialty clinics into one unified group. This model allows for better resource allocation, efficient staffing, and quick access to essential medications. With over 3,000 commonly used drugs available, the group ensures that shortages are addressed within 24 hours.
Experts at the conference stressed the need for a classification and treatment system to address the challenges of high demand and uneven resource distribution. Zhang Jian, dean of the Guangdong Modern Health Industry Research Institute, called for stronger family doctor programs and more training for general practitioners to encourage people to seek care at the grassroots level. Hui Anzhou, president of the Huizhou Medical Association, highlighted the importance of cross-border cooperation in managing infectious diseases and maternal-child health.
As medical reform continues, it is crucial to balance speed with stability. Xuan Gao emphasized the need for public hospitals to understand their own reform goals and risks, ensuring that advancements in medical services align with progress in payment systems, information technology, and pricing policies.
