Answer 1

You have answered your question yourself by suggesting that the "government has to take some reformative approach to reform it".

Government healthcare is cheap but abysmal. Private sector healthcare is of high standard but very expensive. Thus there is very little to choose between for those who are not well off. Either spend a lot of money and become well or stay sick if you have meagre money.

The government can rationalise its healthcare charges. Instead of providing it free (in reality only the consultation is free and nearly every other thing has to be paid for), make the patients pay some realistic amounts of money for the services.

Set up partnerships with private healthcare organisations to provide quality subsidised healthcare.

Strengthen the health insurance sector with innovative and attractive policies, so that patients don't feel the pinch of the treatment expenses.
