The increased ability of patients to pay for healthcare services will benefit Raffles Medical and IHH, which are the largest private healthcare providers in Singapore.
Other than hospitals, they are also expected to benefit from the CHAS reform, with their extensive clinic networks in Singapore, which contributes around 35% and 10% of their total revenue respectively.
Raffles Medical has registered 40 out of its 44 GP clinics and IHH has registered 27 out of its 34 GP clinics as CHAS panel clinics (550 clinics have registered so far).
