Dear students,
remember the challenges that our government faces when managing health care. recall the second challenge: How to provide healthcare given the limited resources and competing needs of the country ?
look at the Mindmap adapted from the Expenditure overview of the 2005 Budget. Singapore budget focuses on four main headings as noted from the diagram
1. Social development ,
2.security and external relations,
3. Economic Development and
4. Government Administration.
Could you see how Health expenditure is competing for budget with other competing needs of the country ?
Please refer to this website , http://www.mof.gov.sg/budget_archives/index.html, and extract the relevant information for the following questions:
Q1. What was the total expenditure for health in 2005 budget?
Q2. compare the expenditures between 2005 till 2007 for health? Why was there a difference in health spending in these years?
