Post delivery hospital appointments for private patient

Hi mummies, im a ftm. Im planning to change to private under kkh during my 30+ weeks. However i read up it states the follow up appointments after delivery will also be charged as private patient. How often is the appointments after delivery and what are the appointments about? And roughly how much is per visit ? Is it worth it ? #FTM

Ya agreed. For post delivery in mid Mar 2023 (natural birth in mid Jan and everything is ok), I went back to KKH for a check-up only once (and OGTT), paid around $150 under private. Next appointment is a year later (after the postnatal check up). For baby check up, we went to polyclinic & hospital every few days for jaundice follow up in the first 2 months. Please go to polyclinic if you can. I didn’t know the price difference until one time we had to go to KKH for follow up (during cny). Follow up at polyclinic charged around $15 but KKH (during cny period), the bill was around $90 (under govt subsidy). We also go to polyclinic for bb’s growth check up and vaccination program - most of them are free or price of vaccine. FYI.
