The remaining co-payment for subsidised vaccinations can be paid via MediSave. Do check with your preferred CHAS GP if they process MediSave claims and your eligibility to use MediSave.

Do note that if you who do not meet the eligibility criteria for flu vaccination subsidies after being reviewed by your GP, you will need to pay the charges as indicated by the clinic. Individuals are recommended to confirm the total cost with the clinic before proceeding with the vaccination.

For Permanent Residents (PRs), subsidies for flu vaccinations are available only at polyclinics for the recommended age group and those with certain medical conditions.

However, MediSave can be used to cover the out-of-pocket expense at both CHAS GP clinics and polyclinics. As the prices of vaccinations at polyclinics may vary, please check directly with the preferred polyclinic before booking an appointment.
