Fadillah right about unhealthy lifestyles, say ex-deputy minister, MMA FMTNews
Deputy prime minister Fadillah Yusof recently told the Dewan Rakyat that unhealthy lifestyles contributed to people having to seek medical attention.
Recently, Fadillah told the Dewan Rakyat that public hospitals were congested because of the quality of healthcare services which were provided at almost no cost. Lee said although the government had extended the operating hours of government clinics and outsourced healthcare services to private hospitals, more could be done.
He said congestion at public healthcare facilities was due to the quality and low cost of treatment, as well as staff shortages and a growing population. “Likewise, the management of NCD cases should also be referred to the private GPs as a high number of the patients waiting long hours at public hospitals and clinics are NCD patients who go for their follow-ups. “
