Minister of Health Nguyen Thanh Long said at last weekâs National Health Conference in Hanoi that in the sectorâs tasks and plans for 2021, his ministry (MoH) will submit to the government a draft decree on joint ventures and collaboration in the first quarter with a move to attract more private investment in the sector.
The minister also proposed a mechanism to increase mobilisation of private investment with appropriate forms such as outsourcing the whole IT service to save time and human resources.
Specifically, as part of the 2021 tasks, the sector aims to mobilise funds through the public-private partnership (PPP) model and encourage such investment in hospitals, especially in the high-end services.
