dc.description.abstractCovering family’s members with family takaful is a necessary act in today’s environment if the financial risks are to be guarded particularly who are facing with mental health illness. This is due to fact that the cost of mental health services has always been a great barrier to accessing care for people with metal health problems and usually required series of consultations by the expert. Mental health illness becomes one of the major illnesses in Malaysia aside from heart disease that lead for seriously attention among takaful operators to include the mental health treatment in their family takaful premiums due to the worrying number of people suffering from mental health illness. Malaysia is still way behind in offering coverage for mental health illness with only AIA Malaysia and Etiqa Malaysia offers such a policy in the current market and there are huge potential in this product. Consequently, the objective of this paper is to propose a hybrid takaful model for mental health disorders in Malaysia particularly among the lower group of income due to the financial barriers. This paper uses a qualitative approach by analyzing the related document and past literature in achieving the current objective. The outcome from this study concluded that mental health takaful is needed in the Malaysia’s market in improving the mental health assessment in the country where the higher level of collaborative effort among the communities as well as governmental and NGOs is mandatory in combating this issue.en_US
