MoH added that the identified 42 conditions, including cancer, coronary artery surgery, stroke, hearing loss, Parkinson\u2019s disease and paralysis, would be considered for this expanded coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The news added that under this new policy, patients diagnosed with rare or serious conditions, or those requiring complex surgeries or advanced medical techniques, would be allowed to seek treatment directly at higher-tier specialised healthcare facilities with full coverage for medical examinations and treatments. Patients don&#8217;t need to follow the usual procedures or obtain referrals between HI-affiliated healthcare facilities. It expects to reduce unnecessary expenses for the HI fund by cutting down on repeated lower-level consultations and reducing the overall number of medical visits, while reduce travelling expense for patients. Coverage is still based the payment rates defined by the current HI law, which range from 80 per cent to 100 per cent depending on the case.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;TO BE EDITED &#8211; TEXT OF THE NEWS &#8211; BLOCK 2 &#8211; Click on the WHEEL icon to open the textarea where you can paste or type your news.
