Wondering if it is possible to ask for ST and OT at subsidized rate by KKH? Cos ARC does not have ST and OT. Private therapies are very expensive.

You mean you walk in as private patient at KKH for OT and ST but wants subsidize rate?

I think its not possible. Cos usually subsidize patients appointment time are longer. But I did heard my SLT told me that there are cases where she see patients on weekly basis as well.

Why not you go polyclinic and get referral to say your school suspect your son has speech delay and recommends to go see speech therapist for an assessment at rehab?

I’m presently under subsidized patient under KKH cos my girl has some health problem and hence I was referred by Polyclinic to KKH to do more blood tests on her.


As my girl couldn’t answer the simple open questions when the KKH PD causally asked her, the KKH PD asked me if she is having some sort of development delays? I replied back that she is having speech delay and motor skill delays.

Wondering if I can make use of the opportunity to ask the KKH PD to send my girl for speech and occupational at KKH during the next follow up
Appt? But my girl is at ARC now, will they find out and reject my request? Its very expensive to keep up with the monthly expenses at ARC and private speech therapy base on my salary.

I'm already under subsidized class. I went thru Polyclinic to ask for referral letter to see CDU at KKH when the school principle suspect my girl is autistic. So when social worker refer me to EIPIC, I believed I am under subsidized category.

Rainbow too far away from AMK leh

U can try to ask for the KKH Rehab, somehow the records there are not linked to KKH’s CDU, u can give it a try, they may not find out.

Lavendery,

Go back polyclinic again.. say your daughter speech delay.. Asked if can go rehab see speech therapist for assessment or not.

Then if they want to refer you to CDU, u tell them no, u already with EIPIC and there is no resident speech therapist.. Thats why you need to go KKH Rehab. Just tell them the truth. I dun think the polyclinic nurse knows what is the difference.
