The Malaysian Ministry of Health (MOH) has announced the expansion of its Total Hospital Information System (THIS) to 16 hospitals as part of a national digital reform.
- Digitalisation: The initiative aims to transition public hospitals to paperless operations, integrating clinical, administrative, and financial data.
- Primary Care: Alongside hospital upgrades, a cloud-based clinic management system will be rolled out to over 2,400 primary healthcare settings.
- Goal: The expansion is a key step towards a “One Record, One Citizen” national electronic medical record (EMR) ecosystem.
