MMA Expresses Disappointment Over Unchanged RM10 Minimum GP Fee

MMA president Datuk Dr Rajoo Thirunavukarasu stated that the association has long proposed a minimum fee of RM50 to reflect the real value of primary care.

"This decision does not reflect the true value of GPs as the frontliners of our healthcare system,"

he said in a statement following the announcement of Belanjawan 2026. He added that with over 10,000 clinics nationwide, this low rate could affect the sustainability of clinic operations, encourage price-cutting practices, and create financial pressure that would render the existing model unsustainable in the near future.
