Law reviews underway to tackle rising private healthcare costs: PM


The government is looking to amend existing laws, including the Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998 (Act 586), as part of an overall strategy aimed at addressing rising private healthcare costs.

Prime Minister Ibrahim said the Health Ministry is refining the legal framework to support the implementation of the Reset strategy, including adopting the Diagnosis-Related Group (DRG) payment system.
