Medical costs in HK

Hi,


I've just moved to HK and my employer has given me the option of two medical plans with different $ coverage for different things.


Looking at it is seems a little low based on what I'd expect - UK prices - so wanted to get a sense of what it costs here.


Any idea what the following costs:


Consultation at a GP's office

Physio treatment

Specilaist consultation

Surgeons fee (hard one I guess)


Anyone had any experience of the above? Would be great to know.


The policy is with AXA and pays betwwen 245 and 500 for a GP, around 500 for a physio and around 500 for a specialist.


All seems pretty low to me so wanted to know whether to upgrade.


They have plan doctors who I guess are free but I think those are just GPs?


Thanks in advance!

Hi, my previous network plan was with AXA. it was a Class 1 plan, and i did made a claim that was inadequate to cover the bill that came through


generally GPs here cost around 200+ to 1000 depending on the prescription

Physio, for an expat like you, i would go to a reputable hospiital's physio department where the equipment and specialist are at the finger tips. Hospital physio costs from 800 - 2k+ per session depending on the equipment used.

Specialist 1k+


Happy to give you some detail advice regarding coverage over a coffee or beer.

Gp 200-500 + medicine

Sp 500 - 1200 + medicine + in office procedures such as ultrasound 300-1000

Hospital stay 50000/day


It is a general idea. Various a lot.
