Did or didn’t MOH know when it replied to newspaper forum in 2009?
Given that the above is widely know, I would like to re-visit an exchange of newspaper forum letters between the MOH and me in 2009, whereby the MOH insisted that my information in this regard was wrong – “Mr Leong also claimed that patients referred from GPs cannot opt for Class B2 and C wards. This is also incorrect. All Singaporean patients who require admission are free to choose their ward class”.
Exchange of forum letters
I am reproducing the exchange of letters in full below, so that you, the readers can decide what the MOH was trying to do in 2009?
Was the MOH not aware of the subject common practice of eligibility to opt for subsidised treatment?
If indeed it was not aware of this common practice which has been going on for decades, why didn’t it ask to confirm – before replying to me in the negative?

Thousands of Singaporeans may consequently have been misled by the MOH’s reply, which may have prevented a lot of patients from ending up in the non-subsidised Class C and B2 wards.
