CHAS Dental Clinic

CHAS Dental Clinic

What is the Community Health Assistance Scheme (CHAS)?

The Community Health Assistance Scheme (CHAS) in Singapore aims to make healthcare more accessible and affordable for Singaporeans. Under CHAS, eligible individuals receive subsidies for medical and dental treatments at participating clinics, including dental procedures. United Dental Surgery is a recognized CHAS dental clinic, offering subsidized dental care to CHAS cardholders. By participating in CHAS, UDS ensures that individuals from lower- to middle-income households can access quality dental services at reduced rates, promoting better oral health and overall well-being within the community.

How CHAS Dental Subsidy Scheme Works?

The CHAS dental subsidy scheme provides subsidies for dental treatments at participating CHAS dental clinics in Singapore. Eligible individuals, such as CHAS cardholders, can receive subsidies for a range of dental services, including dental check-ups, scaling and polishing, fillings, extractions, and dentures. To access the subsidies, CHAS cardholders must present their CHAS card at the participating dental clinic during their appointment. The clinic will then verify their eligibility and apply the appropriate subsidies to the cost of the dental treatment, making quality dental care more affordable and accessible for individuals in need.
