Health
Malaysia's healthcare system in numbers — hospitals, clinics, beds, workforce, spending, private healthcare and medical insurance/takaful.
Start with capacity, then follow the money and people.
PulseKita keeps healthcare infrastructure, workforce, spending and insurance as separate measures so a large facility count is not confused with hospital capacity or access.
Counts describe scale, not quality or adequacy. Use state, district and spending stories together when comparing healthcare capacity.
