Yes, there is a duty MO in the medical centre during RT/IPT/IPPT. With a service injury report, your injury will be officially recognised by SAF hence all treatments are bear by them.

Oic, so let say the MO ask me go x-ray/mri, i would need to bear all the cost myself first. Then after that take the receipt and claim from SAF?

If you are refer by SAF MO, usually there are no charges.

So the referral letter is a prove to show the hospital, i suppose. Because i heard story that some nsmen need to pay themselves first because SAF system very slow.

Referral letter doesn't mean treatment is FOC. It's just a letter to see a specialist to assess your injury.

To claim medical expenses, you will have to do an injury report. If it's approved, only then you can claim the medical expenses from SAF.

The approval is by the MO in the medical center or someone much higher up?

Not MO, there is a department in SAF that handles all these matters but I don't really remember the name though.

As you said you injured during IPT, you should go talk to the the FCC admin or PTI on how to do the report.

No la i not injured, im just curious. But if what you say is true, i think i rather die than pay so much for x-ray/mri. Maybe by the time the report is approved i think i ROD liao.

Anyway, I believe service injury could be hard to prove once you go out of camp. You will need witnesses for the report.

Hmm, do you happen to know if someone successfully claim service injury before? You are right, need to have witness, statement etc... When it comes to money our gov very stingy.

I will just say that you can claim your medical bills with regard to your injury if it's successful. As for more in depth stuff, I'm not too sure I can say too much here.

I booked my last session for RT-IPPT today 5.30pm at khatib fcc (Saturday). But i received an sms message saying that it is canceled due to haze condition.

This is the last RT-IPPT that i need to take before 30 sept 2015 (Wed). Now I can only hope to take on tuesday before i get charged for not completing. What if the tuesday session get canceled again ?

Anyone know who I should look for help ?

Call ns.sg or the FCC that you booked your RT. They should be able to assist you.

I got a sms message from this number 72255. The exact mesage as below.

(Fr: MINDEF) Due to unhealthy level of PSI, IPPT session will be cancelled for Sat (260915). You are advised to book another IPPT.


You tell me how cock up this system can be.

1st they force cancel for me. 2nd this is my last session. If i never cancel on my own accord, i will not be able to book another session as the system is not yet updated me as absent yet. Now I am unable to book another session as my window is closing on this wed.

I can sense a lot of people will have the same problem as us. If they want to cancel it at least cancel it properly. Why left my session in a pending absent status. Now I am unable to book my last session.

Now when I even try to see the available RT schedule it give me error.

"You are required to do 8 RT sessions. You have already attended 7 RT sessions. You have already booked 1 RT sessions."
