兒童糖尿協會對2026-27年度財政預算案的回應丨YDA Response to the 2026-27 Budget Announcement
就2026-27年度財政預算案,兒童糖尿協會(YDA)理解政府加強基層醫療的方針,但對於支援一型糖尿病持續缺乏專項撥款表示關注。缺乏針對性的連續血糖監測儀支援,為希望有效管理一型糖尿病的家庭帶來重大障礙,香港作為國際醫療創新樞紐,應讓一型糖尿病患者能夠廣泛使用像連續血糖監測儀。
與二型糖尿病不同,管理一型糖尿病需要每日注射胰島素及持續監測血糖,對其家庭及照顧者構成相當大的壓力。遺憾的是,在現有的支援系統下,許多家庭未能獲取必要資源或培訓的情況,往往獨自應對這些挑戰。
我們的建議如下:
·在政策上區分一型及二型糖尿病,為兩種疾病制定針對性策略。
·為一型糖尿病兒童提供連續血糖監測儀,設立專項撥款確保適切的支援及管理。
·為照顧者提供更多資源,包括培訓、心理支援及暫託服務。
連續血糖監測儀並非奢侈品,而是讓年青患者活得更健康、更獨立的必需品。讓我們共同爭取公平的醫療資源。

Following Budget 2026-27, YDA acknowledges the focus on strengthening primary healthcare but remains concerned about the absence of dedicated funding for Type 1 diabetes care. The lack of Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) funding hinders families’ ability to manage diabetes effectively, and Hong Kong’s status as an innovation hub should translate into universal access to CGMs.
Unlike Type 2 diabetes, Type 1 in children requires daily insulin injections and continuous glucose monitoring, which places real strain on families and caregivers. Current support remains insufficient, leaving many to navigate these challenges without the resources or training they need.
Proposed recommendations:
·Differentiate between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes in policy, with tailored strategies for each condition.
·Provide CGMs for children with Type 1 diabetes, and establish targeted funding to ensure appropriate support and management.
·Provide more resources for caregivers, including access to training, psychosocial support, and respite services.
CGMs aren’t a luxury—they’re essential tools for healthier, more independent lives for young people. Let’s make access equitable.
