Singapore citizens and Permanent Residents (PRs) are eligible for subsidies if they are recommended for pneumococcal vaccination under the NAIS. Under the NAIS, all adults aged 65 years and above, as well as adults aged 18 to 64 years who are at increased risk of developing severe pneumococcal disease, are recommended to receive the vaccine.

At CHAS GP clinics, eligible Singaporeans can expect to pay around $17 to $68 for a complete single-dose course of PCV20 depending on their CHAS card status or whether they are a Pioneer Generation or Merdeka Generation senior. Healthier SG Singaporean enrollees will be fully subsidised for PCV20 at their enrolled clinic.

At polyclinics and MOH-funded long-term care institutions, eligible Singaporeans can expect to pay around $17 to $68 for a single-dose PCV20, depending on their Per Capita Household Income or whether they are a Pioneer Generation or Merdeka Generation senior. Eligible Healthier SG Singaporean enrollees will be fully subsidised at their enrolled polyclinic. Eligible Permanent Residents can expect to pay around $102.
