PETALING JAYA: Bank Negara's recent plan to introduce co-payment options for medical and health insurance has been questioned by a health professional.
International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) medical officer Dr Muhammad Yassin Ikbaal said in a statement on Saturday (July 20) that while the move was to curb medical cost inflation, it posed significant risks to the accessibility and affordability of healthcare for Malaysians, especially in lower income groups.
