KUALA LUMPUR: Public sector doctors should be allowed to refer patients direct to the Government’s National Health Welfare Fund (TKKK), Umno Youth public complaints unit head Datuk Subahan Kamal said. 

He said that this should be done as red tape within the fund was making it difficult for poor patients to obtain swift financial aid for their medical conditions.
