Moreover, the issues and challenges raised in regard to the implementation of Health Takaful in Malaysia has been thoroughly assessed by focusing on individuals in the low to middle level income category specifically the hard-core poor, poor and low (B40), and moderate-income earners (M40). Therefore, the aims of the paper are to present the micro health Takaful framework for the poorer communities in Malaysia.
