Subsidy for Medication and Medical Consultation
The costs of medication and medical consultation in the treatment of arthritis and autoimmune conditions are very high. As the financial help provided by Government’s Medisave, Medifund and other schemes may not be sufficient to cover these costs, NAF would provide financial support to help patients defray these costs.
Subsidy for Transportation Arrangements
Where underprivileged arthritis and autoimmune condition patients require transportation arrangements to shuttle between hospital and home, NAF will help costs.
Subsidy for Medical Aids/Equipment
Where underprivileged arthritis and autoimmune condition patients require medical aids/equipment to facilitate their treatment or movements, NAF will help to subsidise these costs.
Subsidy for Diagnostic Tests
Where a treating doctor recommends certain diagnostic tests to better treat the arthritic and autoimmune condition, NAF will help to subsidise these costs for underprivileged arthritis and autoimmune condition patients.
Physiotherapy
NAF provides subsidised rehabilitative home-based and in-clinic physiotherapy sessions.
You may schedule an appointment for a therapist to provide physiotherapy at your home or our clinic partner.
Prosthetic Joints
Where underprivileged arthritis and autoimmune condition patients require prosthetic joint devices to facilitate their movements, NAF will help to subsidise these costs.
Psychotherapy
Where underprivileged arthritis and autoimmune condition patients require psychology/psychiatric sessions, NAF will help to subsidise these costs.
