Changi General Hospital offers 50% discount to emergency patients who see GPs first

Hit by a severe bed crunch that has patients waiting in a tent for a hospital bed, Changi General Hospital is offering a 50 per cent discount at its emergency department for patients who see a general practitioner first.

It launched the GPFirst scheme on Monday - in preparation for the traditional flood of patients during the Chinese New Year holidays.


More than 130 GPs in the vicinity are part of this scheme. A referral from them is worth a $50 discount off the $100 emergency department fee.


Dr Muhammad Iqmal Abdullah, whose clinic at Bedok Central sees a fair number of factory workers, said companies tend to send their workers straight to CGH following an industrial accident.
 
Note that discount is only for registration only. Cost of treatment not included.
 
A referral only delays the time for patients to receive treatment at the hospital.

And some of those patients are workers who suffered an industrial accident. All I can say is... well done. I think the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Manpower can fight each other now.

I bet those clowns who wrote the Population White Paper hadn't foreseen a hospital bed shortage, eh? :rolleyes:

You think that they give a flying fuck to that now?

Stinkies with no fucking balls send a clear message acrose

SMRT and other PAP corrupt bodies can do about any fuck thing that they like to squeeze and screw stinkies of more and more money and to fuck them as they like

The lack of interest of stinkies to turn up for the protest organised in HL park send clear messages to PAP bastards that they can do any fuck thing that they care to do and stinkies will remain head down down and arseholes up high high to be screwed and fucked by them.

Sinkies did not turn up by the hundreds or even by tens of thousands to overturn police cars and to burn the police cars.

Who will want to stand out and fight for stinkies when the fucking stinkies got no fucking balls and want to remain head down down and arseholes up high high to be fucked by PAP

Stinkies get what they fucking deserved
money being screwed from them and FTs coming in to kick them out of jobs and to laugh at them

You see a GP first.Pay a hefty consult fee plus medications.Not well and you go to hospital.

You got a hand cut. Most GPs don't even bother to dress or even stitch. You got a referal letter. You pay the GP. You go to hospital and you pay again.

Do you think this is reasonable and sensible?

You suspect you have an appendix. You go straight to hospital and have all your investigations done.

You suspect an appendix. The GP suspect an appendix. The GP still sends you to hospital. Nowadays, GPs also practise defensive medicine.They are not taking the risk . Even simple cases are sent to hospital just in case the patients have some fatal illnesses.

You think this scheme will work? I have my doubts. If i am very sick, i go straight to hospital.Why waste time at the GP clinic and then waste time at the hospital.The queue and waiting time can kill!!! Even if you are admitted, there is no guarantee of a bed space!

waulau this is getting damned jialat man!!!!

Ok wait!

Accept that as collateral damage to yourself

Stinkies asked and asked and begged for that
