description Dalam tahun-tahun kebelakangan ini, perbelanjaan farmaseutikal telah berkembang lebih cepat berbanding komponen lain yang berkaitan perbelanjaan penjagaan kesihatan. Secara global, tekanan untuk menguruskan perbelanjaan farmaseutikal telah membolehkan kerajaan dan organisasi kesihatan bukan kerajaan untuk menggalakkan penggunaan ubat-ubatan generik. Pada tahun 2012, perbelanjaan outof-poket (OOP) Malaysia terhadap penjagaan kesihatan adalah 79% daripada perbelanjaan sektor swasta dan ia adalah dua kali ganda tinggi bagi negara-negara berpendapatan tinggi out-of-poket pembayaran (OOPPs), yang purata 37% daripada perbelanjaan sektor swasta. In recent years, pharmaceutical expenditure has grown faster than many of the other components of healthcare spending. Globally, pressure to manage pharmaceutical spending has led governments and non-governmental health organizations to promote the use of generic drugs. In 2012, Malaysia’s out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure on healthcare was 79% of private sector spending and it was twice the high income countries out-of-pocket payments (OOPPs), which average at 37% of private sector expenses. To bring down the OOPPs and reduce financial burden on patients in private healthcare sector, it is highly recommended to promote the use of generics.
