5th Annual idsMED Malaysia Healthcare Forum

idsMED Malaysia successfully held its 5th Annual Healthcare Forum on 23^rd May 2017 at the Connexion Conference & Event Centre, Bangsar South. More than 400 participants attended the annual event.

The theme for this year was ‘New Holistic Approach in Driving Quality Outcomes in Healthcare‘. We were truly honored to have Dato Professor Dr. Jeyaindran Tan Sri Sinnadurai; Deputy Director General (Medical) from the Ministry of Health to deliver the keynote speech and shared the future healthcare trend in Malaysia where challenges and strategies from MOH have to overcome.

Dato Dr Hassan Ariff, Anesthesiologist from National Heart Institute was one of the prominent speakers in the general session, in which the Legal Issues in Clinical Practice (Consent) amidst the healthcare industry was pointed out. His session was then followed by En Anwar Anis, who shared his views on the Hospital Designs & Layout-Operators’ Perspective.

This year, the Forum was presented with an interesting live Discussion Panel which discussed various topics on this year’s theme. The Panel was moderated by Dr. Chong Su Lin and featured several distinguished speakers in the healthcare industry as panelists, such as: Dr Lim Ren Jye, Dr Alvin Ng, Dr Kavitha and Dato Dr Rajbans.
