Is it true that if FTS shows high risk or positive, the cost for NIPT in KKH becomes subsidised?

Question

Is it true that the cost of NIPT becomes about 300+ if FTS shows high risk? I read in Facebook groups that they received that price but I asked my counsellor ar KKH and she said no, there is no subsidy price for NIPT (theirs is  called Harmony test). They quote me 700+ for NIPT and said price remains that even if I do FTS first and FTS shows high riskniptConfused. Appreciate any sharing of experiences and when you did the tests. Thanks in advance #firsttimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls #nipt

Yes, the NIPT is around $200 lesser if you do FTS first at KKH (provided your results show high risk). Been there, done that (2 months ago). However, I would advise you to go straight for NIPT as it provides a more accurate result and saves you from the emotional trauma from bad FTS results. You get to know the gender sooner as well. The wait for NIPT result is 2 weeks and it will be a long wait if your FTS result is bad.
