ABSTRACT

This pilot survey research aims to provide an overview of Traditional Chinese
Medical Services (TCMS) in Thailand. The focuses of the paper are the recent
development in this sector, problems of services providers and the near-term trend of the

demand for TCMS. By analyzing the sample of 131 public and private hospitals, the
findings can be summarized as follows:
First, TCMS in Thailand have expanded rapidly. During the first 10 months of
2005, the number of new cases increased by 53.22 percent while the number of old cases

increased by 7.23 percent compare to the same period of 2004. However, the TCMS in
Thailand are mostly in the public hospitals and in the form of acupuncture
Second, although TCMS in Thailand is the fast growing sector, about 50 percent

of services provider are facing with the problem of the shortage of human resource in this
area while about 31 percent are facing with the problems in other forms. For example, their
patients have insufficient understanding about the Traditional Chinese Medical care. These

services providers are seeking for potential supports from the South-East Asia Institute of
Thai-Chinese Medicine
Third, about 45.2 percent of the hospitals without TCMS plan to provide

Traditional Chinese Medical care in the next 2-3 years and expect potential support from
the South-East Asia Institute of Thai-Chinese Medicine, in particular, human resource
development and public education, together with the existing problem of human resource
shortage, it implies that further action in human resource development and public education
