Macau has played a pivotal role in the eastward spread of Western medicine and its health governance experience, particularly in the construction of its healthcare system, has led and represented the modern transformation of urban health governance in early China to some extent. This study, from an urban history perspective, analyzes the process and experience of constructing Macau’s healthcare system. It summarizes the current developmental status of Macau’s healthcare system, examines its main features and construction effectiveness, and suggests strategies for improvement. These include increasing the allocation of specialized medical resources, enhancing the cultivation of talents in the broader health sector, and promoting collaborative healthcare and disease prevention in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area. Finally, the study highlights the insights gained from Macau’s public-private partnership model and the comprehensive coverage of its primary healthcare services, offering new ideas for health governance in the Greater Bay Area and beyond.
