HKSH Collaborates with HSBC to Advocate Early Investment in Health Capital Regular Screening to Manage "Health Assets" for Healthy Families and Healthy Ageing

2026-05-19
(Hong Kong, 19 May 2026) – HKSH Medical Group (HKSH) joined the HSBC Premier Affluent Family Health Report 2026 Forum to raise public awareness of saving health capital for families and individuals. HKSH contributed insights on cancer screening, healthy ageing, and brain cognitive health. A key concern remains the knowledge-to-action gap in adopting early and regular health screening. Through this collaboration with HSBC, HKSH hopes to further promote healthy ageing, emphasising that investing in health capital early can extend health span and improve quality of life.

The survey report found that many people skip regular health check-ups and often overlook cancer screening, with cost concerns being a common barrier. Uncertainty about which medical examinations to choose adds to the hesitation. Despite Hong Kong’s long life expectancy, confidence in healthy ageing is not universal. The abundance of health information can overwhelm individuals, leading to disengagement and missed opportunities for timely prevention and early detection. Cognitive health, in particular, tends to receive limited attention, reflecting an underestimation of its importance for long-term mobility and well-being.
