The 3 elements of healthcare: High quality, reasonable cost, and ease of access…
Quality
Cost
Access
Situation Challenges Opportunities
Ac
ce
ss
• Increasing elderly population• Increasing medical travellers• High quality healthcare • Efficient schemes [Medisave, Medical Shield, Medifund, Eldershield]
Access constraint: • Shortage of hospital bed space (2.2/1000, ideal 3/1000)• High cost of healthcare
Improved access: Medisave covers 12 private hospitals in Malaysia; offer international medical insurance• High premium specialized packages that cover eg. BUPA Pregnancy; … preventive

Qu

ty
Co
st
• Flat subsidy per patient of US$80 paid to the hospital/doctor regardless on the disease treated• Popular with public
• 39% population covered by government insurance, 5% covered by private; ~56% uninsured
Pregnancy; … preventive
Cost constraints: • Not sustainable as cost incurred by hospitals is higher leading to deteriorating service and quality in overburdened public hospitals• Cost constraints in other part of the world eg. Middle east, Singapore
Cost-effective options:• Packages for middle & high income groups who would prefer to pay for high quality • Opportunities for foreign (ME) insurance companies to lower their reimbursement costs [60-70% cheaper than US, 50% cheaper than Singapore
Quality constraints: • Inadequate quality; wealthy go to Malaysia and Singapore• Middle class relies on private; less pressure on the government to provide good quality healthcare
Improved quality options:•High premium packages that cover medical travel •Packages that incentivize local treatment at JCI accredited hospitals
