Enhanced CHAS Subsidies available at Healthway Medical GP clinics
Vaccination Subsidy
From 1 November 2020, the Ministry of Health (MOH) will enhance subsidies for vaccinations recommended under theNational Childhood Immunisation Schedule (NCIS) andNational Adult Immunisation Schedule (NAIS) at all Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) General Practitioner (GP) clinics. All Healthway Medical GP clinics are under CHAS.
Vaccination is important foradults andchildren, as they provide protection against vaccine-preventable infectious diseases, and also help to achieve herd immunity in the community.
Singaporeans will benefit from higher subsidies of $35 to $125 for nationally recommended vaccinations listed on the Subsidised Vaccine List (SVL) administered at CHAS GP clinics.
Eligible Singaporeans need only pay the following amounts for the range of nationally recommended vaccinations at CHAS GP clinics, after government subsidies:
i. Eligible Singaporean children: $0
ii. Eligible Pioneer Generation cardholders: Capped at $9 to $16 per vaccination dose
iii. Eligible Merdeka Generation, CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders: Capped at $18 to $31 per vaccination dose
iv. Other eligible adult Singaporeans: Capped at $35 to $63 per vaccination dose.
Childhood Developmental Screening subsidy
Childhood Developmental Screening (CDS) is often conducted together with childhood vaccinations and allows family doctors to screen for developmental delays in children to ensure timely referrals for any necessary early intervention.
Eligible Singaporean children will also receive a full subsidy for the seven childhood developmental screening milestones, at both CHAS GP clinics and polyclinics.
