AMCHAM will be organizing a Healthcare Forum on Wednesday, 26 July 2023 at Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur Hotel and we are delighted to have Datuk Dr Muhammad Radzi, Director-General of Health, Ministry of Health Malaysia as our Guest of Honour. This forum will bring together an ensemble of expert speakers to discuss how companies can help strengthen and expand the healthcare system in Malaysia.
AMCHAM and our member companies have been listening keenly to the announcements and policy directions of the Malaysian government, and our Healthcare Forum 2023 intends to provide an opportunity to explore how the skills, resources and technological innovations of the private sector can support the government's objectives of expanding access to healthcare and delivering improved healthcare outcomes to all Malaysians. Three key areas: partnerships, digital adoption and innovation, are central to the program of the day.

- 9:10 AM - 10:10 AMPanel 1 - Partnerships: Tackling Healthcare in an Aging SocietyMalaysia will be an aged nation by 2030. Alongside this demographic shift, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are rising in Malaysia with lifestyle changes over the years, shifting disease burdens in the elderly and the need for comprehensive solutions and an all-of-society approach. These factors will increase the cost of care per patient.
How can the healthcare delivery system be transformed with focus on primary care, optimizing hospital care, public policies and effective public-private partnerships? How can screening help with early detection and management of diseases? What is the role of Health Education and Promotion in a patient’s journey? How should health care professionals keep up with trends in healthcare?

Where do we go from here?A nationwide implementation of EMRs will be a truly transformative experience for Malaysia. Digitalization of MOH-healthcare facilities will affect everyone in the country, including patients, consumers, policy makers, pharmaceuticals and payers.
Digital transformation is a big opportunity for efficiency and connectivity, from building robust cloud-based foundations, to empowering our care providers with Medical Internet of Things (IoT), and delivering a Zero Trust cyber security framework for health technologies.
While Governments, providers and consumers all stand to benefit from this, there are also challenges to be addressed in the areas of data availability, readiness, governance, technical expertise.
