An independent committee must conduct a sincere and open review of the MySalam scheme, said a health think tank.

“Unfortunately, despite the good intentions of the MySalam insurance scheme, people are being left behind. This is due to its design which is too similar to that of a for-profit critical illness insurance coverage, rather than one which has been designed to meet the specific needs and concerns of the B40 group,“ he told theSun.

Jeyakumar also said the promised RM2 billion can be channelled to the Health Ministry to help patients with their co-payments required of them in government hospitals.
