" #doctors possess significantly more #medical knowledge than their #patients. This #imbalance creates opportunities for potential #dishonesty.. Revoking a doctor’s ability to make #insurance & #MediSave claims for six months may be insufficient to deter such #offences.. In contrast, #fraudulent claims made against SkillsFuture were met with more severe consequences" #Singapore #governance #ethics

Letter of the week: Deterrent signal needed to ensure trust in healthcare
I read with concern the report that the Ministry of Health (MOH) has taken action against private specialists for overtreating, overclaiming, or claiming for procedures that were not done (MOH suspends 2 doctors from making insurance, MediSave claims for 6 months, Aug 5).
btcprox 🇸🇬Pioneer generation and Merdeka generation #seniors will receive #MediSave top-ups in July, amounting to a total of S$270 million, the Ministry of #Finance (MOF) and Ministry of #Health (MOH) announced on Monday (Jun 13).
Eligible Pioneer generation seniors will receive top-ups of up to S$900, while eligible Merdeka generation seniors will receive S$200.
