11. Organization and Management of Health Care in Saudi Arabia
The Healthcare sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is primarily
managed by the Government through the Ministry of Health (MOH).
There are number of semi public organizations which specifically
operate hospitals and medical services for their employees. The
private sector operators also play a key role in providing quality
healthcare
12. Levels of health care services There are three tiers of
healthcare delivery Provides preventive, prenatal, emergency, and
basic services, as well as mobile clinics for remote rural areas
Primary Serves as a referral centres for cases that require more
advanced careSecondary cases that need more complex levels of care
are transferred to central or specialized hospitals Tertiary
13. The MOH is the major government provider and financer of
health care services in Saudi Arabia In accordance with the Saudi
constitution, the government provides all citizens and expatriates
working within the public sector with full and free access to all
public health care services

15. Service Delivery The Saudi health care system is challenged
by the shortage of local healthcare professionals. The majority of
health care personnel are expatriates from Egypt, the Philippines,
Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, and many other countries like Europe,
Canada and America. As of 2009, the labour force comprises 53% of
Non-Saudi and 47% Saudi Nationals.
16. The total number of physicians and nurses employed by MOH
respectively were 25,832 and 63,297, and of these 22.5% and 50.3%
respectively were Saudi nationals. (MOH, 2009) The private sector
employs 17148 physicians and 23308 nurses, of these only 4.9% and
4.8% respectively were Saudi nationals (MOH, 2009) Apart from
private colleges and institutes, there are a total of 73 colleges
for medicine, health and nursing as well as 4 health institutes in
Saudi Arabia

19. Health financing The public health sector is financed,
operated, controlled, supervised, and managed by the MOH (Govt) The
total expenditure on public health services comes from the
government and the services are free-of-charge. There was a
fantastic increase in health care budget from SAR 30 Billion (6.3%
of Govt budget) in 2008 to SAR 68.76 Billion(11.8% of Govt budget)
in 2011.
20. Health insurance The Council for Cooperative Health
Insurance was established by the government in 1999 to introduce,
regulate and supervise a health insurance market. The
implementation was in three (3) stages. The first stage is for the
private sector The second stage is for public sector. The final
stage applied to other groups, such as pilgrims.
21. Conclusion Healthcare indicators of Saudi Arabia compared
to other developed countries such as the US, UK and Germany shows
that there is a shortage of doctors, nurses and beds in Saudi
Arabia. The shortage is widespread across all GCC countries,
however, Saudi Arabia has the lowest number of beds, nurses and
doctors per population within the
