Lala81 Hypersonic September 2, 2018 Share September 2, 2018 If I am not mistaken, nowadays can be means tested and downgraded. A lot of times, complicated cases get referred from private to restructured due to the potential high costs involved if treatment is rendered at the private hospital.... or really specialised “skill” required I believe the vast majority of MCFers will not qualify for downgrade based on means testing. If you don't qualify for a CHAS card, i doubt you can pass the govt's mean testing. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic September 2, 2018 Share September 2, 2018 In the case of NICU. Baby icu. Out needs a whole dept of specialist to run 24 by 7. The amount of equipment is mind boggling. I don't think any private hospital can gather.. and maintain 24 by 7.. that kind of human and material resource. Yup. This is a nice series of children in the KKWCH ICU and what the kids and parents face. I watched it 2 months ago. https://video.toggle.sg/en/video/series/inside-the-children-s-icu/ep1/565006 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can lar bro... being there done that.... in fact, we got no intention one.... but the social worker help us with the paper work, dont know how they do it, but they did, maybe see me no up.... think this farker end up prob cannot afford cause the bill is really WTF...... anyway can downgrade and pay less why not.... I hope you lodged a complaint to SMC about your wife's case. Personally I have not encountered anything as bad as your experience.

For this case of very large bills. I think they may help. But for like normal hospital admission, the income level in here, i think difficult to qualify based on my previous experience.

Surpize 1st Gear September 2, 2018 Share September 2, 2018 So far encounter with KKH have been great. The Delivery Suites, NICU as well as post discharge care. My girl decided to come so much early & spend four months in NICU then... My understanding is there are limited space in the NICU ward and KKH will reject premature delivery case if it is full or pending case. NUH & SGH does have bb NICU too although I feel KKH will be more experience & equipped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow.. must cost a BOMB. 4 months no joke siah..Hope you had pregnancy insurance... or baby already covered under medi shield. Had colleagues who paid 6 figures in earlier times. Actually emotional stress on mummy is terrible Edited September 2, 2018 by Playtime Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surpize 1st Gear September 3, 2018 Share September 3, 2018 It is fortunate that a great medical team was available and our Little Warrior fight a tough battle of survival. That four months was indeed stressful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drafting88 3rd Gear September 6, 2018 Share September 6, 2018 Just thought I should share this vehicle identification and locating system which is used in Sengkang General Hospital. Was surprised by it as was not aware that such a system exists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
