香港執業脊醫協會由 主席林嘉慧脊醫 代表，於8月3日參與特區政府舉辦的 *《香港首個五年規劃》及《2026年施政報告》［醫務衛生］諮詢會*，積極為業界發聲，全力爭取將脊醫全面納入香港的基層醫療藍圖。
我們較早前已正式提交書面建議書，促請政府將脊醫融入公營醫療生態系統，同時針對市面上不受監管的痛症中心提出嚴正關注，保障公眾健康與病人安全。
在是次會議中，協會提出三個核心建議：
1️⃣建立脊醫「主動分流」機制： 由脊醫作分流點，減輕公營骨科輪候壓力，提升勞動力產出，避免輕症拖成重症。
2️⃣強化地區康健中心（DHC）： 引入脊醫對學童進行早期脊椎側彎篩查，以及對長者進行防跌平衡篩查，減低跌倒風險。
3️⃣ 融入大灣區醫療協同： 配合「十五五」規劃，將香港高標準的脊醫服務轉化為大灣區標杆，為跨境養老港人提供無縫健康管理。
歡迎各會員積極在網上提交個人意見（截止日期為 8月14日），一起為市民得到更全面的社區醫療發聲。
CDAHK, represented by Chairman Dr. Kary Lam, participated on August 3 in the HKSAR Government Consultation Session on the "First Five-Year Plan for Healthcare" and the "2026 Policy Address" (Health). We actively spoke up for the industry and advocated to have chiropractors included in Hong Kong's primary healthcare blueprint.
Earlier, we formally submitted a written proposal urging the government to integrate chiropractors into the public healthcare ecosystem, while raising serious concerns regarding unregulated pain centers on the market to safeguard public health and patient safety.
During this meeting, CDAHK put forward three core recommendations:
1️⃣ Establish a Chiropractic "Active Triage" Mechanism: Position chiropractors as triage points to reduce public orthopaedic waiting times, enhance workforce productivity, and prevent minor conditions from developing into severe ones.
2️⃣ Strengthen District Health Centres (DHCs): Introduce chiropractors for early scoliosis screening and management for students, as well as balance screening for fall prevention among the elderly, thereby reducing fall risks.
3️⃣ Integrate Greater Bay Area Healthcare Synergy: Align with the "15th Five-Year Plan" to transform Hong Kong's high-standard chiropractic services into a GBA benchmark, providing seamless health management for Hong Kong residents retiring across the border.
We welcome all members to actively submit your personal views online (deadline: August 14), and let us speak up together so that citizens can attain more comprehensive community healthcare.
