This report written in July of 1998, results from a rigorous investigation into the impact of the economic downturn and the potential longer-term implications for healthcare systems throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Six countries (Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand) were selected as they were both suffering economically and attempting to implement innovative healthcare delivery or financing schemes. The report contains overviews of each country’s healthcare system providing specific information on how services were provided and funded, the impact of the crisis and forecasts for future impact. AHV managed a collaborative effort with The Economist Intelligence Unit and Rabobank to produce "Impact of the Crisis" of which more than 10,000 copies were disseminated globally.

AHV and Ogilvy Healthcare Network are conducting one of Singapore's largest market research efforts to better understand current issues and needs of older people and caregivers. The research investigates attitudes and behaviours specific to compliance with medical visits and medications. The results will seek to provide the healthcare community with critical insights to help the sector better tailor information, products and key services to older people and those who care for them.
