If you are a Singaporean, you can access subsidised screening for cardiovascular diseases, cervical cancer, and colorectal cancer at a low, fixed fee, as long as you are eligible (please see Question 3 for eligibility criteria). This fixed fee also covers one follow-up consultation (if needed). These screening services are only available at CHAS GP clinics.

The subsidy is free for Pioneers. CHAS Blue, CHAS Orange and Merdeka Generation (MG) cardholders will need to pay a fixed fee of $2. All other Singaporeans, including CHAS Green cardholders, only need to pay $5.

For example, an eligible CHAS cardholder will pay $2, and this will cover the cost of the screening visit, which could include screening tests for cardiovascular risk, colorectal cancer and/or cervical cancer screening, and the consultation fees for one follow-up visit, if required.

While Permanent Residents are not eligible for SFL subsidies, they can enjoy HPB’s screening test rate(s)* at CHAS GP clinics. The prevailing doctor consultation rates will be charged accordingly by the respective CHAS GP clinics.

^*Please check with your preferred CHAS GP clinics for the rates.

The SFL subsidies aim to encourage more Singaporeans to go for recommended screenings and receive the necessary follow-up. Treatment is more effective when conditions are detected and treated early. Going for regular screenings and follow-up with your regular GP helps to develop a meaningful patient-doctor relationship, so that your GP is better able to manage your condition(s) in the long term.

Your eligibility depends on:

1. Your age and gender as below:
   • Cardiovascular risk screening - Men and women aged 40 years and above
   • Cervical cancer screening – Women aged 25 years and above
   • Colorectal cancer screening – Men and women aged 50 years and above
2. The date of your last screening:
   • Cardiovascular risk screening – Three years since your last screening
   • Cervical cancer screening – Three years since your last Pap test or five years since your last HPV test
   • Colorectal cancer screening – one year since your last screening with FIT
3. Whether you have been diagnosed with chronic diseases or selected cancers (cervical and colorectal).

You are strongly encouraged to make an appointment with your preferred CHAS GP clinic. On the appointment day, please present the relevant documents, your NRIC, and CHAS/MG/PG/PA* card (if any), to qualify for the subsidised rate.
