I am currently a private patient at KKH. Would like to know whether i will be able to change to subsidised patient instead? Is there any possibility? Anybody knows? I am currently 12weeks pregnant. A little worried about the future cost for prenatal visits/delivery for private patients. It seems alot more expensive than subsidised.

Yes u can. All u need to do is to get a referral letter from polyclinic but that would also mean that u cant5choose doctors anymore. subsided patients and rates are more feasible I feel.

Usually they wont. Mine didnt ask. I told them im unable to deposit the full amount during the registration for delivery and ward, so the cso told me the only way is downgrade and take subsidies ward without any referral letter
