Overview:
Foreigners who have received negligent medical treatment in Malaysia can bring a claim in the Malaysian courts to seek compensation or redress for the injuries, losses, and damages they have suffered.
Malaysia’s healthcare services have grown in international popularity due to its increasing standards and affordable prices, with an influx of patients from countries including Singapore, China, Australia, the UK, and the USA. Unfortunately, mistakes and human errors inevitably occur. The result has been an increasing awareness of patient rights and an uptrend in damages awarded by the Malaysian courts.
Join us for an insightful online session where we will provide a comprehensive guide on navigating medical negligence claims in Malaysia. Our speakers will also address issues related to foreigners who intend to bring claims of medical negligence in the Malaysian courts, common obstacles and solutions.
