Are Minmed clinics PHPC (public health preparedness) clinics?
Minmed is a participating clinic under the Public Health Preparedness Clinic (PHPC) scheme which provides subsidized treatment, investigations and medications during disease outbreaks. Subsidies will be provided for patients with respiratory infections during the COVID-19 outbreak.
If you are diagnosed via doctors to have a respiratory infection, the cost of consultation and treatment will be subsidized as follows:
- Singaporean and Permanent Residents, as well as eligible work permit holders (excluding foreign domestic workers and performing artistes), would pay a flat subsidised rate of $10
- Pioneer Generation (PG) and Merdeka Generation (MG) seniors would pay a lower rate of $5
- Public Assistance (PA) cardholders need not pay. If you are consulting for non respiratory illnesses, the above rates do not apply.
- Prevailing subsidies for CHAS/PG/Merdeka. Generation cardholders are however applicable.
