The health care system in Malaysia has undergone a fundamental transformation over the last two decades. This book examines this transformation and explores the pressing issues it faces today. It includes coverage of:

  • considers the responses of the Malaysian state and government policy
  • issues such as equity of provision, women's access to health care, HIV-AIDS health care, care for the elderly.
  • The book offers a detailed examination of the changing face of health care in Malaysia, and its impact on Malaysian citizens, users and society.
