PUTRAJAYA: The Health Ministry is planning an alternative non-profit health financing scheme to address the limited coverage of out-of-pocket funds and private health insurance.

Minister Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam said while the current highly-subsidised public health care would be maintained, the plan was to address the challenges and limitations that Malaysians face with out-of-pocket payment and people facing financial difficulties.
