Abstract

Mapping the distribution of medical specialists in the Ministry of Health (MOH) Malaysia facilities is expected to be more complex as the demand for specialty and subspecialty services increases in the future. A more robust and definitive gap analysis is needed to facilitate planning and resource allocation. The Medical Development Division developed a master list of framework of specialties, subspecialties and areas of interest, and Specialist Database Module in the Medical Programme Information System (MPIS) as tools to facilitate mapping of services. Relational database of specialists' location, facilities, workload, population profile and other relevant parameters were developed to provide data visualisation in specific dashboard. Needs versus supply ratio is proposed as one of parameters to visualise specialised medical services distribution by geographical localities.

按专科、亚专科和兴趣领域划分的马来西亚卫生部医院专科医生分布图。

随着未来对专科和亚专科服务需求的增加，绘制马来西亚卫生部（MOH）医疗设施中医疗专家的分布图预计将变得更加复杂。需要进行更有力、更明确的差距分析，以促进规划和资源分配。医疗发展处制定了一份专科、亚专科和相关领域框架总清单，并开发了医疗计划信息系统（MPIS）中的专科数据库模块，作为促进服务规划的工具。开发了关于专科医生地点、设施、工作量、人口概况和其他相关参数的关系数据库，以便在特定的仪表板上提供可视化数据。建议将需求与供应比率作为参数之一，以直观显示各地理区域的专科医疗服务分布情况。

期刊介绍： The Malaysian Journal of Medical Sciences (MJMS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access, fully online journal that is published at least six times a year. The journal’s scope encompasses all aspects of medical sciences including biomedical, allied health, clinical and social sciences. We accept high quality papers from basic to translational research especially from low & middle income countries, as classified by the United Nations & World Bank (https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/ articles/906519), with the aim that published research will benefit back the bottom billion population from these countries. Manuscripts submitted from developed or high income countries to MJMS must contain data and information that will benefit the socio-health and bio-medical sciences of these low and middle income countries. The MJMS editorial board consists of internationally regarded clinicians and scientists from low and middle income countries.
