500,000 kidney failure patients paying S$300 mio per month for treatments 

500K X S$600 = S$300,000,000 per month

In one year, Hospitals and NKF collected S$3.6 billions without Govt subsidies - it's for a lifetime 

This is totally madness

Year 2025 Budget for Healthcare Expenditures is S$17.95 billions.
it's under funded.

Compared to only renal sector, kidney patients paying Out of Pocket alone is S$3.6 billions yearly over a lifetime 

How come no Govt subsidies?
