You will be charged under private rate once you chosen a private ward, then all your follow-up appts after discharge will be under private too.. For baby should be also e same if mummy is private rate patient..
I think upon admission for your delivery, you should tell them. Upgrading from subsidised to b1/a1 is never a problem. But just note that afterwards eg. Clinic follow ups will be under private rates
Latest update (but KKH, not sure for NUH) we’re allowed to opt for b1 or a1 and still be a subsidised patient for subsequent follow ups with effect from this January!
Really? So can choose to stay in B1 but still a subsidized patients?
Just ask the hospital
