Malaysia Healthcare reinforces its commitment to providing seamless
end-to-end patient experiences with enhanced offerings focused on preventive
healthcare. The global healthcare ecosystem is constantly evolving. In
recent years, emphasis is being placed on prioritising wellness and
preventive healthcare as the growing global population becomes more diligent
in adopting a healthier lifestyle. Similarly, Malaysia Healthcare has been advocating the need to
move from curative care to preventive health and wellness, encouraging
healthier lifestyles. Malaysia Healthcare introduced a new Premium Wellness
Programme, an industry-wide collaborative effort with top-tier private
hospitals, hotels and travel companies in the country to integrate
comprehensive health screening, world-class accommodation and leisure tour
offerings into one convenient comprehensive premium package for healthcare
travellers. “In line with the third Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of
the United Nations to ‘ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all at
all ages’, Malaysia Healthcare warmly welcomes healthcare travellers,
especially health and wellness enthusiasts who are eager to seek preventive
care and wellness treatments to take advantage of this programme. In addition
to health screening according to your age, gender and current health status,
patients can choose to add on dental, aesthetic and cosmetic procedures as
well as having more targeted screenings for diseases like Hepatitis C, cancer
and heart related diseases. You will be able to indulge in the comforts of
top-notch hotels and enjoy the country’s touristic attractions via specially
arranged tours,” said Mohd Daud Mohd Arif, Chief Executive Officer of the
Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC). Malaysia, a popular global destination for healthcare
travellers, has won numerous awards, including the coveted “Destination of
the Year” title by UK-based healthcare travel authority International Medical
Travel Journal (IMTJ) numerous times in recent years. The country’s solid
reputation as a destination for travel and healthcare attracted 1.06 million
European tourists and 1.22 million healthcare travellers in 2019 alone. In its commitment to ensuring that all healthcare travellers
receive affordable, accessible and seamless end-to-end healthcare, the
country also offers niche treatments such as cardiology, oncology, fertility,
orthopaedics, neurology, and aesthetics such as bariatric treatments, dental
and other services. Malaysia is home to over 250 private healthcare facilities,
which are highly regulated by the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH) and
globally recognised. The country adopts regulated prices, with the MOH overseeing
ceiling rates for healthcare treatments. As such, healthcare travellers are
assured of fair price structures no matter the treatment complemented by the
country’s healthcare offerings which are easily accessible, with little to no
waiting time needed. “Malaysia Healthcare is on a quest to provide the Best
Healthcare Travel Experience and invites interested healthcare travellers,
especially health and wellness enthusiasts, to come and visit us at the World
Trade Market 2022 (WTM) and learn more about our Premium Wellness Programme
and other offerings. Come and take advantage of the seamless end-to-end
services that Malaysia Healthcare provides,” said Mohd Daud. In addition to MHTC, Malaysia’s tourism partners, including
Tourism Malaysia and state tourism bodies from Sarawak, Sabah, Penang,
Selangor, Johor, Perak and Melaka, Malaysia’s leading private hospitals will
be on hand at WTM. Visit the Malaysia Healthcare booth at the Malaysia Pavilion
