Covering leading public hospitals across the province, the pilot provides medical services aligned with international standards for residents from Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions (SARs) and Taiwan, foreign nationals, and overseas Chinese, with treatment costs paid out of pocket or covered by international commercial insurance. The University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital alone has treated patients from 129 countries and regions and received 720,000 cross-border visitors over the past three years. From January to July 2026, its international medical services business grew 17.8% year on year. Guangdong is also accelerating plans for wholly foreign-owned hospital pilot projects in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. So far, six projects have secured investment agreements, while three have already received formal approval for establishment, further expanding the province’s international healthcare sector.
