New health funding options being studied, says Khairy

"Therefore, the government is studying several health funding options which are time-proof to strengthen the whole healthcare system, so that equitable, high quality, easily accessible and sustainable health services can be provided in the long term," he said in a written parliamentary reply dated July 19.
