Life Renewed: Widening Access to Care and Treatment for Cancer Patients in Malaysia

There is a pressing need to address the burden of cancer care in Malaysia, and that is exactly what IHH Malaysia and the Ministry of Health, Malaysia (MOH) aim to address through a new partnership.

With the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the MOH, IHH Malaysia will extend care and treatment to cancer patients in Malaysia through its network comprising Pantai Hospitals, Gleneagles Hospitals and Prince Court Medical Centre.

Under the terms of the MOU, IHH Malaysia will fully sponsor radiotherapy and radiosurgery for 500 cancer patients from underserved communities who are undergoing treatment at government hospitals. These patients, identified and referred by MOH and its designated specialists, will receive treatment across seven of IHH Malaysia’s hospitals that are equipped with state-of-the-art technology – including Gamma Knife and Linear Accelerator (LINAC) – to treat their cancer.
