GEORGE TOWN: The Federal Government chose not to impose service tax on private hospitals so they could provide affordable treatment, said Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.
“We lose billions there, so we hope this would help to reduce the cost of private health care,” he told reporters after the launch of three new services at Mount Miriam Cancer Hospital here today. Lim said he had asked Afif to arrange a meeting him with private hospital representatives in Penang to discuss their plans on medical tourism, which comes under the purview of the Finance Ministry.
