Health Ministry sets 3 priorities for 2027 Budget

PUTRAJAYA: The Health Ministry has outlined three key areas to prioritize in the 2027 Budget. These include bolstering healthcare services for citizens, strengthening national resilience, and promoting social justice and development for all. During its Budget 2027 Engagement Session today, the ministry discussed these priorities.

MOH emphasized that every allocation should be directed towards achieving specific outcomes and impacts, rather than just focusing on the volume of expenditure. Each proposal must clearly specify the issue at hand, the target beneficiaries, the desired changes, and the methods to measure its effectiveness. In his speech at the engagement session, Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad stressed that Budget 2027 must serve as a tool to strengthen the nation's healthcare system.

He emphasized the importance of ensuring that every allocation made to the Health Ministry delivers tangible benefits to the people.
