The above proposal was made by delegate Nguyen Anh Tri ( Hanoi Delegation) at the discussion session on the morning of December 2 on the draft Resolution on a number of breakthrough mechanisms and policies for the work of protecting, caring for and improving people's health and the investment policy for the National Target Program on health care, population and development for the period 2026-2035.

Mr. Nguyen Anh Tri believes that free hospital fees must be directed towards improving the quality of medical examination and treatment with good medicine, standard diagnostic and treatment protocols. At the same time, it must be convenient, that is, proactively examining and treating at the nearest and most convenient place, implementing real referral, not depending on health insurance payments and ability to pay.
Mr. Tri emphasized the factor of fairness, the basic medical examination and treatment must be arranged as close as possible and there must be enough medicine to treat the people. All people, depending on the level of illness, will benefit equally.
" Free hospital fees need to have a reasonable roadmap but must achieve universal hospital fees by 2030. I propose to implement free hospital fees early for people being treated for difficult-to-treat, chronic cancers, patients on dialysis, especially cancer patients being treated with very expensive drugs ," Mr. Tri suggested.
The Hanoi delegation also mentioned the mobilization of social resources to participate in people's health care, especially investment in developing medical examination and treatment facilities and diagnostic centers, testing centers, imaging diagnostic centers and functional monitoring centers to provide high-quality health care services.
According to Mr. Tri, it is necessary to create all conditions for the private health system to become an important driving force in protecting and taking care of people's health.
" The private healthcare system strives to provide about 30% of medical examination and treatment services for the whole country by 2030 and 45% by 2035 ," the delegate stated the goal.
During the discussion, delegate Nguyen Tam Hung (Ho Chi Minh City Delegation) suggested that the Drafting Committee consider adding criteria to determine groups of subjects that will receive increased benefits based on their health risk and high risk of disease, instead of relying solely on social and administrative criteria.
Delegates pointed out the reality that people at high risk of chronic diseases, genetic diseases, early metabolic disorders, etc. always require large and long-term treatment costs.
" Expanding the approach standard in the direction of prioritizing health risks will direct policies in the right direction, ensure health equity and contribute to reducing the disease burden on society in the long term ," said Mr. Hung.
