PR Pregnancy

Question

Any Malaysian PR having check up/giving birth in KKH? Do you open pink book at MY too? or can we open pink book at MY and continue check up at KKH? Im planning to give birth at KKH so can claim my husb medisave, but the cost every check up is really expensive 😅Could not claim my cpf as i just being a PR this January 🥲. Tq everyone for your insight!#firsttimemom

Yes you can open pink book in MY! Just go to your nearest Klinik Kesihatan (KK) with your IC and pregnancy confirmation. It’s free for Malaysian citizens. Some mummies do both, open pink book in MY for the cheaper checkups when they balik kampung, then continue main checkups at KKH in SG. The two don’t conflict. Good tip to save cost: do your routine checkups at a MY KK or private clinic when you’re back (way cheaper), and only do the important scans and later trimester visits at KKH. As long as you deliver at KKH you can still claim hubby’s Medisave for the delivery. Just make sure to bring your KKH records when you go MY and vice versa so both sides know your history.
