Method & notes
IN BRIEF

Registered clinics form the largest facility network, while hospitals and specialised centres represent a smaller but higher-capacity layer of care.

METHOD & LIMITATIONS

How the numbers were calculated

PulseKita reproduces selected facility counts from MOH Health Facts 2025. Categories belong to different regulatory and service groups, so this is a footprint snapshot rather than a like-for-like performance ranking.

  • Registered medical clinics and dental clinics refer to private registered clinics in the MOH Health Facts table.
  • MOH health clinics, Klinik Desa, community clinics and maternal & child health clinics belong to the public primary-care network.
  • Licensed private hospitals, ambulatory care centres and haemodialysis centres are regulated private healthcare facilities.
