Resident check and double check to make sure he was covered by insurance before admission.
Yet the insurance refuse to pay and hospital sent debt collectors to harass him for payment.
This is our medical system?
https://www.tiktok.com/@tanwumeng/video/...7865309442?
so what is the solution for the patient in this case? he still have debts outstanding and who is liable? talk is cheap by politician and got say like no say in this case!
Can you even believe the minister reply when she said if everyone has done what they were supposed to do this situation would have been avoided..??!!
The MP was asking what more can be done by the ministry to prevent such a situation
Surely if a person in need of medical treatment checked with hospital if his insurance covers the treatment...the hospital has to be responsible for the answer given!!!....Otherwise the hospital can say anything it wants and get away with it.

the resident checked with the private hospital and private doctor only.
this is not the correct method.
the correct method is to check with the insurance company and get black and white.

Buy insurance cannot cover, buy for F.
Must as well don’t buy.
Dont laugh!
The solution is the patient suck thumb.
Can the patient sue the doctor and hospital?
The solution is patient suay. Government bodies always get away with mistakes.
I remember sometimes back, iras hotline told me my stock trading losses can reduce tax.
Then they accuse me of evading tax, I play back the hotline message for iras to hear.
Then iras officer say sorry for hotline mistake to mislead me, but I still cannot deduct my trading losses.
Bravo to iras, their mistakes, we suffer.
If I know trading cannot deduct, I would have invest in real estate instead trading
Aiyo,,, it always been like that wan ma insurance chiak lang to survive.
The corréct way is dont pay and sue the hospital for providing outdated info
And for fark sake, Parliament should mention the hospital name as there is nothing to be hidden if the MP is raising a resident's concern
Why hide such info?
which insurance company?
sounds like there is more to be told

Recent months, those elderly died alone in hawker centre, void decks and inside HDB flat should complain to your MPs, why like that one?
Why you didn't bring it to Parliament?
She is a Total misfit in Parliament. The patient had already gone to MOH who made the patient go back to the doctor. I am amazed how air- headed she can be giving the wrong advice like both MOH and the private hospital doctor.
Typical jiak liao bee PAP amd govt authorities useless people...

They shd divulge the insurance company name. So that everyone can avoid.

The agent who sold him the policy is the one most peepur would contact. We should have his or her card in our wallet and phone number in our Contact List.

Don't jump to conclusions. You are already assuming that the insolan company is cheapo trying to wiggle out from paying.
1. Utmost goot fave. Did the client disclose preexisting condition (s) when he bought the policy?
2. Lifestyle. Vape lar, piak lar, get lung problem lar, get ghey rerated kkj dis-ease lar.. this huan will be a tipping point between can craim or cannot craim.
3. Etc...
So, you need to be given all the facts of the case and a brain and importantly good character to make a judgement. From past records you don't have all three.

Likely Medishield Life Insurance under PAP
That is why the Sotong Princess said to refer to MOH
Also, the TikTok clip said that the private doctor & Clinic gave out-dated information
Meaning that MOH website is also not updated, thus misleading all parties
