referral from polyclinic, charges are indeed cheaper but you do not choose your doctor and each visit is a different one as well.
IIRC, consultation fee is about $28 and the other checks and test like ultra sound OSCAR etc are subsidize, i think around 50%. Medication and multi-vits etc are not subsidize. Also when you give birth, it will be by mid-wife unless there in emergency cases then the doctor will attend to the delivery.
Oh if in-case of emergency and you need to go to the 24-hour clinic, the rate is also subsidize since you have referral from polyclinic.
For me, I had switch from KKH subsidize patient to private clinic in TMC. Wanted to go to private suite at KKH but I do not have friends who have a gynae there. As a subsidize patient in KKH, my check-up is between 2-4 hours per visit. At private, usually less than an hour and I'm out of there.

To my surprise, they call me up to follow up on my feedback on e same day I submit feedback form when I discharge from hospital due to High BP.
