*From April 1 2023, treatment for those admitted to hospitals or Covid-19 treatment facilities because of the virus will no longer be fully subsidised, regardless of the patients’ vaccination status*.

People infected with Covid-19 will no longer have to stay in community isolation facilities from April 1, just as they are not required to do so for other endemic diseases such as influenza or chicken pox.

Some of these facilities will remain open for those who want to self-isolate, but patients will be charged for their stay.

As these facilities are not classed as medical facilities, citizens and permanent residents will not be able to tap government subsidies, MediShield Life or MediSave to pay their bills.

All patients will be required to pay for Covid-19 tests from April 1.

From Feb 13, protocols for those who test positive for the virus will also be scrapped, but residents are advised to exercise social responsibility.

Persons infected with Covid-19 should follow the updated general advisory for people with acute respiratory infection symptoms.

Medical certificates issued for Covid-19 will not be differentiated from those given for other diseases, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung.
