Direct Payment Mechanism from Medical Service Users for Public Hospitals in Vietnam

The article explores a state-of-the art analysis of payment mechanisms directly from healthcare users to public hospitals in Vietnam. The mechanism of direct payments from healthcare users to public hospitals has also been modified to meet the demands of phased socio-economic development. But in addition to the advantages of the mechanism, there are still many shortcomings and obstacles. In order for this mechanism to have a positive impact, take advantage of its strengths, overcome existing ones, and bring practical benefits to the public hospital system, the paper has proposed a number of solutions, such as building a proper health care pricing route, transparency of payment mechanisms directly from healthcare users, etc.
