[SINGAPORE] Even as Vietnam’s healthcare system faces a major long-term crisis of capacity and structural strain, the country’s government is advancing significant healthcare reforms.

A key target of the country’s 2021-2030 National Master Plan is to increase private hospital beds to 15 per cent of the national total by 2030.
