 Located in Southeast Asia
 Population:30 Million
 Male/Female ratio : 1:1
 Healthcare in Malaysia is mainly under the
responsibility of the government's Ministry of Health.
 Malaysia has a Two tier Healthcare system consisting
of both a government-run universal healthcare
public system and a co-existing private healthcare
system.
 5% of the government social sector development
budget is allocated for public healthcare RM34
Billion (8 billion € ) yearly.
 Infant mortality rate –5.4 in 2010
 Life expectancy at birth-76 years in 2012
 Public healthcare in Malaysia is heavily
subsidised, as the government is
determined to maintain medical services
at an affordable and accessible level
 Primary health care costs
RM1(0.23€ )for outpatient treatment and
RM5(1.17€)for specialist care.
 Senior citizens and the disabled need not pay
for health care.
 All public hospitals are required to be
equipped with the latest in imaging
equipment/devices.
 The Malaysian health care system requires
doctors to perform a compulsory four years
service with public hospitals to ensure that the
manpower in these hospitals is maintained.
 Doctors are required to perform 4 years
including 2 years of housemanship and 2
years government service with public
hospitals throughout the nation, ensuring
adequate coverage of medical needs for the
general population.
 Generally located in urban areas.
 Equipped with the latest diagnostic and
imaging facilities.
 Fee is much higher than that of the public
sector.
 All private healthcare facilities in Malaysia are
required to be licensed under the Private
Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998
and Private Healthcare Facilities and Services
Regulations 2006. Thus, patients are assured of
optimum quality and safety
 The medical and dental services offered are
vast and they cost considerably less than
similar ones in neighbouring countries, and
are a mere fraction of the prices charged in
Europe.
 This balance of quality and affordability has
led to a boom in Medical tourism in recent
years.
 Remote areas
 Islands.
 In January 2011 the Malaysian
government launched a program to
renew prescriptions via mail. Medicine
via Post targets patients with chronic
