3. Integrated Health Services
• Definition
The organisation and management of health
services so that ...
– people get the care they need,
– when they need it,
– in ways that are user-friendly,
– achieve the desired results and
– provide value for money
(WHO Tech Brief No.1, May 2008)
• Means to an end, not an end in itself
4. Integrated Health Services
• User – health care that is seamless, smooth and easy to
navigate continuity of care, health worker aware of
patient’s health as a whole, not just 1 aspect
• Provider – separate technical services and administrative
support systems are provided, managed, financed and
evaluated either together
- Important with increasing specialization
• Senior health managers and policy makers –
decisions are not inappropriately compartmentalised,
consider different technical programmes,
taking into account the network of public, private and
voluntary health providers, inter-sectoral opportunities
5. Role of the Private Sector in Malaysia

stronger than private health care sector,
