Abstract

Healthcare Administration services in Saudi Arabia have evolved tremendously over the past two decades, as evidenced by the availability of healthcare facilities across the vast kingdom. The Saudi Ministry of Health (MOH) providesmore than 60% of these services, while the rest is shared by other government agencies and the private sector. A number of development plans in Saudi Arabia have created the infrastructure to expand healing services across the country. Future challenges for the Saudi health system need to be addressed in order to meet the ambitious goals of the latest health development plan. These include making the best use of existing healthcare resources with competent healthcare management, finding alternative sources of funding for these services, maintaining a balance between curative and preventive services, expanding the training of Saudi Arabia's healthcare workforce to meet growing demand, and implementing a comprehensive program of primary health care.
