PETALING JAYA: The setting up of a 13-member Advisory Council on the Health White Paper is welcome, says the Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia (APHM).
The Association of Private Hospitals Malaysia said on Thursday (Aug 18) that the Ministry of Health's proposal to increase the country's public health expenditure to 5% of gross domestic product (GDP), from about 3% currently, should be done under Budget 2023 as the existing public healthcare expenditure is not viable anymore.
PETALING JAYA: The country’s policy on the usage of Covid-19 antiviral drug Paxlovid does not include low-risk, asymptomatic patients, says Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.
