Why do I need to pay for medical report?
  • A Medical Report is a comprehensive summary of the patient's medical condition. The doctor will need to review the patient's medical records in order to produce an accurate report that meets the needs of the requestor.
  • Medical Report is not covered under regular consultation and hospitalization fees. Thus, a fee will be charged to cover the hospital's administrative costs for providing the report.

This is a standard practice across all the Public Healthcare Institutions in Singapore.

Who should I contact if I want to check on the status of the request or have further enquiries?

You may contact us through our Enquiry Form.
