Empirical findings suggest that CO 2 emissions policies reforms are required to channelize healthcare sector growth to a more government spending resulting from fiscal policy designed by the government of Malaysia. The regulators of other countries should pull out CO 2 emissions policies to achieve sustainable economic growth and health sector growth development. The results provide important information to allow comparisons of the health-care sector with other economic sectors in Malaysia and the global healthcare sector in terms of CO 2 emission. In particular, the results are intended to contribute to the understanding of the CO 2 emission of national healthcare systems so that policymakers, especially in low-income and middle-income countries, can develop relevant CO 2 emissions mitigation policies.
