Private Labs Joining 30 Baht Treatment Project Nationwide: Medical Technology Council Reveals Expansion Plans and Challenges

Medical Technology Council Revealing that private labs are participating in 30 baht treatment everywhere, 49 places, waiting in line at 30 places, expected to reach hundreds soon. As for those who have not yet joined, they still lack confidence in forwarding cases from hospitals and are asking for a central program to order cases. Send information back, no need to invest.

On March 9, Dr. Witthaya Ngao Taku, 1st Vice President of the Medical Technology Council, spoke about the overall picture of participating in the project to upgrade 30 baht for treatment everywhere with a single ID card at a private medical technology clinic. There are approximately 900-1,000 private medical technology clinics nationwide. Currently, there are 49 clinics participating in the project, and another 30 are in the queue. It is expected that in the short term the total number will likely reach 100.

for operations in 4 pilot provinces in the past It was found that the amount of disbursement was still low, with only Phrae Province being better, as well as in Health Zone 4, Nonthaburi Province, which although not in the pilot area, started the process first and received a response. Pretty good As for the expansion of the pilot area in Phase 2, from visiting the area to explain project details in collaboration with the National Health Security Office (NHSO), it has also received quite a bit of interest.

Dr. Witthaya said As for the clinics that have not yet decided to join the project, It was found that some of them still lacked confidence in cases that would be transferred from hospitals to clinics. Therefore, I would like NHSO to explain to hospital administrators. If hospital administrators understand and see the benefits in reducing congestion It will be very beneficial to patients. In addition, there is the issue of data transmission. From ordering cases to be examined and sending information back to the hospital. If there is a central program to use without private labs having to invest. It is believed that the clinic would be more interested in joining the project. The current trend is considered good because there are apps. Doctors are ready to offer to help in transferring case ordering information from the hospital to the clinic. and the clinic sends the lab results back into the hospital system. I believe that various working systems from now on should be better.

“Now is a period of adjustment. I would like to publicize and invite medical technology clinics to participate. The council is happy to support various matters such as participation criteria. The council is pushing for the creation of specific criteria for direct medical technology clinics, with a check list to assess one’s own potential. Then the council will check whether it meets the criteria or not. If they meet the criteria, they will send a list of names to NHSO for registration as a joint service unit, etc. Now NHSO has opened this opportunity. It is an opportunity for the medical technology profession to serve the public,” Dr. Witthaya said.
