Our Partner, Yuichi Ota, was recently featured in The Business Times, where he shared his perspective on Vietnam’s changing healthcare landscape. The article explores how Vietnam’s healthcare sector is undergoing structural shifts as reforms create new opportunities for foreign investors.
Ota-san highlights how Vietnam’s healthcare market is moving through a period of transformation, with reforms encouraging foreign participation across a broader range of entry strategies. His perspective points to a healthcare sector that is no longer defined only by traditional public-sector delivery, but increasingly shaped by private healthcare, healthtech, digital health, and new models of investment.
The article also notes that Vietnam’s healthcare system continues to face long-term capacity and structural pressures, while the government is advancing reforms aimed at building a more modern, fair, and sustainable healthcare system by 2045. These changes are supported by targets such as increasing private hospital beds to 15% of the national total by 2030.
