Updated by MOH

To protect the public from being misled into thinking they are consuming a licensed healthcare service, non-licensees are prohibited from referring to skills/services purporting to treat disease of the human body in their healthcare advertisements.


Non-licensees cannot use terms or names of LHSes, or terms associated with medical or dental specialities, in their business names with the exception of health-related societies and academic institutions or associations.
