VI. HOSPITAL COSTING

446. In last year's report figures were given of the costing of repre- sentative hospital units. Records have been maintained for the same units this year using exactly the same basis of expenditure for compari- son, and these are detailed in Table 43. The total cost in 1962 are somewhat higher in each case, but, since more patients were treated in these institutions, the average cost of treating each patient is less in most instances.

TRAINING PROGRAMME

DOCTORS

447. The University of Hong Kong confers the degrees of M.B., B.S. which have been registrable with the General Medical Council of the United Kingdom since 1911. At present the Faculty of Medicine admits between 70 and 80 students each year, of whom, between 35 and 50 eventually graduate. After provisional registration with the Medical Council of Hong Kong, the graduates are required to undergo a 12 months' period of compulsory internship in posts approved by the University. There are plans to increase gradually the intake of medical students to about 120 each year between now and 1966 with the aim of graduating some 80 doctors each year.

448. A number of clinical posts in the major hospitals are recognized for post-graduate training by the majority of the examining bodies in Britain.

449. The post-graduate training of doctors in the Goverment Service for higher qualifications necessary for appointment to specialist clinical posts in general medicine, surgery, orthopaedics, paediatrics and obstetrics and gynaecology, is under the supervision of the Panel on Post-Graduate Medical Education, which consists of the University Clinical Professors, the Government Clinical Specialists and members
