Identifying areas for improvement in the existing health care systems, making sound recommendations as well as providing advisory services for the government and other private bodies are the major work of MHRN.

MHRN is running under the auspices of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong. It is developed on the basis that the University is a key partner and champion in the processes of health care policy research, advocacy, analysis and planning by bringing evidence based information. MHRN functions at three levels: the Advisory Panel comprising major policy-makers, the Executive Board and the various Study Groups.
