Parents can now register eHealth accounts for their kids

The Health Bureau announced that citizens are able to open eHealth accounts for their children aged under 16 via the one-stop platform on the eHealth mobile application from Thursday (Feb 20), making it more convenient to manage health records of their children.

The bureau also introduced a time-limited gift redemption campaign on the same day to encourage parents to register eHealth for their children and to promote public participation in the health challenges on the "e+ Life" platform under eHealth and build healthy habits.

From today until May 31, children aged under 16 will earn health coins on their eHealth App account for gift redemption, after successful eHealth registration by their parents.

Moreover, from today until July 31, parents who register their newborns aged under 1 with eHealth will also receive an extra limited edition Newborn Gift Box, which includes a multipurpose baby stroller bag, a mini soft tape measure, an eHealth picture book and other exquisite gifts.
