The operation period under this contract will be three years.
The Tsuen Wan DHC will provide services with a focus on three tiers of prevention, namely primary, secondary and tertiary prevention.

Government-subsidised primary healthcare services including health promotion, health assessment, chronic disease management and community rehabilitation will be provided by the operator of the DHC through medical-social collaboration and public-private partnership to enhance the public's capability in self-management of health and provide support for the chronically ill in the community.
As a key component of the public healthcare system, the DHC is a district primary healthcare hub comprising a core centre, complemented by sub-district satellite centres and a network of private medical and healthcare practitioners providing multiple access and service points. Apart from service delivery, the DHC also co-ordinates with community partners to provide social welfare and healthcare services in the district, and makes referrals as necessary.
The basic services to be operated by the DHC are set out in the tender documents. The charges which the operator may impose on DHC clients cannot exceed the prescribed ceilings set out in the tender documents.
