KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 7): Increased spending in the nation’s health sector and adding value to government and private healthcare services are among the Health Ministry’s biggest challenges, its minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad said.

Since helming the ministry in May 2018, Dr Dzulkefly noted that despite already achieving upper middle income status, the nation has, in fact, been underspending when it comes to healthcare services.
