（登嘉樓‧瓜拉登嘉樓）衛生部長拿督廖中萊表示，政府已於1月1日開始，調高國內超過4000名專科醫生所享有的津貼，調整幅度介於300至700令吉之間。

他表示，由於大馬的專科醫生肩負重責大任，以提供大家所需的專業醫藥服務給人民，因此這次的調整是非常合理的，同時也能與先進國專科醫生的待遇相比。

盼吸引更多醫護員加入

“我們希望這一次的調整，能夠吸引更多醫生和醫藥及衛生工作者繼續為政府服務。”

他是於週五（1月9日）在港務局廣場主持一項健康運動開幕儀式後，向媒體如此表示。陪同出席者包括副衛生部長拿督阿都拉迪醫生。

他指出，作為主要級別／特級（gred utama/khas）以上者，專科醫生原本每月享有的津貼為2400令吉，經過調整後，他們的津貼目前已經提高至3100令吉。

此外，處於UD41級別者，他們原本的每月津貼為1300令吉，現在則是1600令吉。

“這一次的調整涉及一年高達2770萬令吉的預算撥款。”

廖中萊表示，政府將通過各種改善及提高醫藥工作者的其他待遇，以提昇本地人民所享有的醫藥服務水平。

提供“地區津貼”

上述調整包括提昇隨時應診（on-call）醫務人員的值班津貼，以及提供“地區津貼（elaun lokasi）”。

“政府明白在一些偏遠地區如沙巴及砂拉越出現醫藥人員短缺問題，因此政府已根據當地值勤的醫藥服務者所面對的困難度設立了‘地區津貼’，這項津貼的概念早在2007年已被教育部採用及實行了。”

他表示，從今年初開始，任何在沙巴或砂拉越服務的醫務人員，每次乘搭直升機到有關地點服務者，政府將提供每趟30令吉的“地區津貼”給有關醫務人員，在此之前，只有醫生享有這項津貼。

他表示，衛生部也建議重新檢討公共衛生牙科專員的津貼制。

Bid to attract more specialists in public hospitals

KUALA TERENGGANU: Public hospital specialists have been receiving an allowance increment of between RM300 and RM700 per month since Jan 1.

The Government is hoping the move will be able to attract more specialists to continue serving in public hospitals.

Health Minister Datuk Liow Tiong Lai said the allowance revision was based on the heavy load and responsibilities of the specialists.

“Furthermore, allowances for specialists have not been reviewed for the past 19 years,” he told reporters after opening a health programme yesterday.

Liow said more than 4,000 specialists working in the public hospitals would benefit from the increment. For example, specialists in grade 41 would have their allowance increased from RM1,300 to RM1,600 per month.

For those in grade 53 and 54, their allowances would be increased from RM2,200 to RM2,800.

Specialists in the “Utama” category, would be getting RM700 extra every month from RM2,400 to RM3,100.

Liow said the ministry also agreed to increase the on-call as well as location and hardship allowance (Elaun Lokasi Megikut Tahap Kesusa­han).

“It is pending the approval from the Public Services Department. The Government is concerned with the responsibility and difficulties faced by the medical officers who are on-call duty after working hours, or during public holidays, as well as those posted to rural areas,” he said.

He said the ministry also had increased the per flight allowance of nurses in Sabah and Sarawak.

Before the increment, the nurses would get about RM10 to RM15 per flight according to their grades. Now, it is RM30 per flight.

“We think it is only fair to give them the same allowance as the doctors as they are also giving the professional services to the people.”

两份报纸写的，针对的对象应该都是专科医生
可是指的是 specialists in grade 41，可是我想问问看， specialists的grade是 41 哦？
而星洲日报纸的是UD41，一般新进的医生的的级别都是UD41哦，他们的津貼是否也是提增？
这些报道很模糊，应该得等待这个月的月薪才能知晓

而我们药剂师是否也有这个津贴增加呢？
我们的级别也是U41，不知道会不会一并提升了？
但愿如我所愿
阿弥陀佛～～
阿门～～
