Access to healthcare and medicine
We aim to expand access to comprehensive, quality healthcare services. This includes initiatives that reduce costs and increase access to medicine and treatment for more people.
We do this by:
- Implementing disruptive strategies to eliminate inefficiencies in the healthcare value chain.
- Driving value-based care initiatives to improve health outcomes while managing costs.
- Prioritising primary healthcare to provide essential services at a feasible cost, with a strong focus on prevention and early detection.
- Partnering with government through the Central Chronic Medicines Dispensing and Distribution programme to support universal healthcare.
- Leveraging technology and other innovations to reduce costs.
- Engaging in collective bargaining for cost reduction.
- Exploring alternative reimbursement models and risk-sharing agreements.
- Conducting successful tariff negotiations.
- Managing supplier-induced demand.
- Combatting fraud, waste and abuse to curb maladministration and reduce healthcare costs.
