This move is our government’s latest attempt to contain the virus outbreak — will eventually see about 900 GP clinics activated as part of MOH’s network of designated Public Health Preparedness Clinics.
The important question is how much will these clinics be charging? Good news is that the citizens and permanent residents will just have to pay a flat rate of $10 for consultation and treatment, while Singaporeans in the Pioneer and Merdeka generations will only pay $5.
Also this consultation, if you’re one of those suspect, there will also be five days of sick leave too if the patients displaying respiratory symptoms.
To make things easy, you can even check online now on where the clinic is. Why? Because MOH launched Flu Go Where, a microsite that lets you search for the nearest PHPCs wherever you live. As of writing, there are over 800 participating clinics that provide special subsidies, so finding one near your abode shouldn’t be an issue.
Aside from that, there is also another government portal called Mask Go Where but this portal show the locations of community centres where constituents can collect a free pack of four surgical masks.
So there you have it! Make sure you share this with your friends and family too!
