Nirmala Bhoo Pathy, Professor at University of Malaya, shared on LinkedIn:
“Snippets from the first-ever workshop on patient and financial navigation, which Faculty of Medicine Universiti Malaya had the privilege to organise and lead with the National Cancer Society Malaysia
The key takeaway —> Patient navigation is both art and science.
ART: compassion in guiding patients and securing timely access to care and support, anchored in
SCIENCE: evidence, structure and strong monitoring and evaluation for lasting impact.
It is this balance that transforms care, improves outcomes and strengthens health systems.
As part of the WHO GBCI working group that authored the technical brief on patient navigation, I am proud to see these global principles being translated into action regionally Dr. Mary Nyangasi-Onyango.
Thanks to Pharmaceutical Association of Malaysia and Life Insurance Association of Malaysia for the support”
