If I am referred to the Emergency Department (ED) / Urgent Care Center (UCC) under the GPFirst programme, will the fee at the ED/UCC cover all investigations and tests?

Updated by MOH

The attendance fee at the ED/UCC currently covers:

 

  • Consultation

  • General X-ray services. E.g. Chest and abdomen x-rays

  • Standard Blood Investigations

  • Standard Medications

 

Specialised investigations and non-standard medications required are not included and will be charged separately. This also applies to patients who go directly to the ED/UCC of participating hospitals.

 

Please note that there may be other services and procedures not mentioned above that are not included in the attendance fee. For more information, please enquire with the administrative staff at the ED/UCC of the respective hospitals.
