pilot basis for a period of three years from 1 January 2009 and was converted to a recurrent programme in 2014. The electronic vouchers are issued annually to residents aged 70 or above (2016 or before)\/65 or above (starting from 2017) to partially subsidise their use of private primary health care services.<\/p>\n<p>Eligible elders do not need to register in advance. When they need to receive healthcare service and use the vouchers, they just need to show their Hong Kong Identity Card to an enrolled healthcare service provider and sign a consent form. The vouchers will not be issued in paper form.
