Tinto - 707m
Sunday 30th September 2007
Sunday 30th September 2007
Weather/Conditions: Warm day, with blue sky and clouds, a small breeze most of the way up, and a bit windier at the top.
Distance/Ascent/Time: 7km / 480m / 3h 15m
Accompanying: Kim (amazingly :-) )
We arrived at Fallburn, outside Thankerton at 1.05pm. We left a few minutes later, and began walking up the lower slopes. Kim was going at an absolute snail's pace, so I'd be ahead, then stop for a few minutes, and then walk again. When we reached the cairn at 478 metres, Kim's Grandpa decided to stop there and wait for us until we got down. Kim and I went on, following the path upwards (which actually reminded me of the Ben Nevis track a lot - a motorway, really) Apart from the fact that everything you sat on or touched was covered in spiders, it was a nice ascent. The last part was the slowest maybe, but we got to the top in the end (2.50pm)
When we arrived, I had confirmed to myself that this really was the largest cairn I'd seen in my life. I believe it may have some historical significance, although its metres high and it's even wider than it is tall. On top of this massive cairn (which is visible from many, many miles away) there's a trig point-like column to mark the top. There were a lot of wind-breakers dotted about, usually with old food in them, or people scribbling their names on rocks. I wasn't too impressed by this but I have to say, it felt like Nevis in more ways than one. Nevertheless it was a nice hill otherwise.
After a while and some pictures, we left the top and met Kim's grandpa on the way down, exactly where he was before. That's impressive, considering I don't have nearly that much patience! We were leaving just as the sun was setting in the sky. I was dropped off at Hamilton West, where I waited until a train came. I got home after another twenty minute wait at Central - not fun, but arrived home surprisingly exhausted!

A fraudulent spiritualist and his accomplice have been sentenced to 20 years imprisonment with hard labour by Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of the Ikeja High Court.
A fraudulent spiritualist and his accomplice have been sentenced to 20 years imprisonment with hard labour by Justice Olubunmi Oyewole of the Ikeja High Court.
The accused, Akeem Opeewe and Olatunji Abolanle, were jailed by Justice Oyewole for obtaining money under false pretence.
P.M.News gathered that the spiritualist and members of his gang, who made quick money through deceitful means of money doubling, were arrested and charged to court by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
They were arraigned on a 10-count charge of conspiracy, obtaining money by false pretence and stealing. Nemesis caught up with them when an aggrieved complainant reported their fraudulent activities to the EFCC.
Their first victim was a lady who was having trouble with her marriage as a result of her husbands alleged extra marital affairs. P.M.News gathered that the lady consulted the spiritualist who assured her that her husband would return to her as soon as some sacrifices were performed.
Coincidentally, her husband came back home and she was impressed with the potency of the herbalists power. Buoyed by this, she introduced the herbalist to her friends, among whom was a lady who needed spiritual assistance and quick money.
The lady was made to believe that she could become instantly rich if she produces N500,000. Her friend assured her that he (the spiritualist) would use juju invocation and make the money reproduce itself everyday for 11 consecutive days.
She had parted with N159,000 for several purposes, which include fees for sacrifice, spiritual bath, acceptance prayers by elders and sacrifice to three so-called witches allegedly invoked by the gang, before it dawned on her that she had been duped.
On realising this, she reported the matter to the EFCC which arrested the fraudster and his accomplice. The accused were charged to court and they pleaded guilty to all the charges brought against them. Justice Oyewole had no option but to sentence them to 20 years imprisonment with hard labour.

The woody fruit capsule of Erepsia lacera seen from the top is an intricate affair with appeal that might inspire car manufacturers when designing hubcaps. Circular when viewed from the top, this structure is funnel-shaped seen from the side.
Ten locules is a high number on fruits in a genus mostly producing five, the maximum seen in Erepsia being 13. There are sharp tips on the expanded keels and covering membranes on the locules, but no closing bodies are present in Erepsia. The seeds are dark brown and ovoid.
There is a videoclip on YouTube that shows the rapid opening of an E. lacera fruit capsule when water is poured over it (www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2JA9_E8Cvc; Smith, et al, 1998; Bond and Goldblatt, 1984; iSpot; www.plantzafrica.com).

Zimbabwe's African Bowls Championship double gold medalist Aaron Chilundo has set his sights on the world bowls singles which comes to Australia next year and is appealing for sponsorship.
The 20 year old Alexandra Sports Club's bowling star Chilundo conquered Africa by winning two gold medals and a silver at the African Bowls Championships in Johannesburg.
His focus is now on claiming sculps at the world championship that comes to Australia in October next year.
The national singles champion is already planning for the event and seeks sponsorship to raise funds for airfare and visa fees required for him to be able to attend.
Chilundo rose to prominence after being crowned a provincial champion and his journey thereafter has been one of success after another.
He specialises in the singles in a sport once considered to be elitist and for the old but he said his rise has helped demystify the myth.

Upgrading or improving your home can be one of the most rewarding activities you could undertake — and that includes monetarily, because depending on the improvement, you can boost your home's value and recoup some of your investment when the time comes to sell. However, it's important to remember that upgrading your house isn't exactly a dollar-for-dollar investment; you probably aren't going to make all of your money back that you sunk into the improvement, so pumping $5,000 into your kitchen and then expecting to just tack on an additional $5,000 to your listing price when you sell it is very likely unrealistic.
Which home improvements result in the highest return when it comes time to sell? There are several that are likely to generate at least a small increase in your home's value — but before you decide what to do, think about how long you're likely to stay in the house and which upgrades you'll get the most enjoyment from before you start renovating. That way you won't be expecting a 1:1 (or higher) return, and if you're focused on improving your own lifestyle and maybe making some memories with your household, you'll be picking the wisest upgrades and increasing your home's future listing price at the same time.
Kitchen rules
It's still very true that the kitchen is the heart of the home, and for that reason, kitchen upgrades tend to be some of the best improvements you can make in terms of increasing your home's value. Plus, depending on what you're doing in the kitchen, the upgrades tend to be much more flexible or forgiving in terms of your overall budget than other rooms in the house — you can pretty easily sink thousands of dollars into a kitchen, of course, but it might be pleasantly surprising to discover just how much you can get for a few hundred dollars.
On the cheaper side, one way you can brighten up your kitchen is to replace the cabinet doors and paint the cabinets. There are really no rules as to what you should do, except one big one: Following trends usually dates your kitchen pretty quickly (remember the "tuxedo" cabinet craze a few years back?), so try to go with something classic. Plain dark or light wood tends to work well when you're updating cabinet doors, or pick a color that meshes with the rest of your decor for the paint. Adding a backsplash instead of plain paint can also be an easy way to upgrade your kitchen on the cheap side.
And then there are the more expensive upgrades, like replacing your formica or laminate countertop with granite or quartz. This will require more of a monetary investment, but it can elevate your kitchen's look (and the price of your home), so it's worth considering if you're sick of your kitchen counters and want something different. Talk to your contractor or even call up your real estate agent to ask what they think about your options — it might be tempting to go with another trendy material, like concrete, and these people can tell you if the trend will have staying power or if you should just stay away.
Appliance upgrades are also definitely not on the cheap side, especially if you're going to upgrade everything in the kitchen from the range to the dishwasher to the fridge. But if your appliances are looking tired and you'll get a little use out of the new ones before you decide to sell, it can be well worth the investment. Pick something you like, of course; even though stainless steel appliances aren't exactly new, they're new enough that they can give your entire kitchen an "updated" look, which can do quite a bit for the sales price of your home.
Bathrooms matter
Although most of us don't spend quite as much time in the bathroom as we do the kitchen, it can still pay off to drop some home-improvement dollars on your bathrooms to update them, especially if it's been a while. Replacing cabinets and countertops is sometimes a good idea in the bathroom, too, or updating the mirror (especially with a bigger option) to brighten up the room.
If your house doesn't have any bathtubs, adding a tub is often a big winner in terms of home improvement — especially if you have a fancy tankless water heater or another option that will ensure plenty of hot water for the baths. Jacuzzis have more or less fallen out of fashion, but long, deep garden tubs where even a tall person can stretch out and relax are always a good investment.
Re-tiling the shower (or upgrading to tile from a fiberglass version) can also make your bathroom look much better, and installing a new shower head (or even two if your shower can accommodate them) is a worthy improvement that both you and a future buyer can both appreciate.
Think green
Many buyers are prioritizing environmentally friendly, low-cost homes that make the most of energy efficiency; if you've had an energy audit done on your house and have a list of recommendations, then this could be a good place to sink any extra money you might have to throw at a home improvement. Some common suggestions include replacing or upgrading the insulation, replacing windows and even external doors, & converting to a tankless water heater.
Solar Panels are growing in popularity, but can be a hit-or-miss home improvement in terms of investment. Some plans ask the homeowner to pay off the solar panels month by month over a matter of years, and if your panels aren't fully paid off by the time you decide to sell the house, then some buyers might balk at the idea of continuing to sink their own money into what was essentially your improvement. That attitude might not make sense to you, but if it's possible, buy your solar panels outright so you can include them as part and parcel of the house when the time comes to sell it.
Inside and out, there's almost nothing that makes a house look instantly nicer and brighter than a fresh coat of paint. Choose a high-quality paint type and experiment with colors; there are all kinds of tech tools, including apps, that allow you to try out a new paint color before you dive in and invest in enough paint to capture all your rooms. Another option would be to ask your agent as they are likely to work with professional home stagers & interior designers who will be able to help guide you in the right direction.
When it comes to the outside, don't forget about any porches, decks, or fences that might require a little paint face-lift. A fence with chipping, flaking paint can make a house look tired and unkempt, so when you're painting, make sure you include any features on the perimeter of your house, too.
Smart-home add-ons
Not everyone has an Amazon Alexa or Google Home device, but for those that do, there are plenty of items you can add to your home to make it a little "smarter" and easier to control by voice. Whether it's a smart thermostat you can control with an app, a smart lock for your door that's programmable to allow pet-sitters or house guests to walk on in, a light system that allows you to create a specific ambiance in your living room or bedroom, or any number of other additions, some buyers will definitely appreciate the fact that your home appears to sport the latest and greatest in technology.
The great outdoors
Adding a deck or an outdoor kitchen can be a huge selling point for future buyers, especially if you live in an area where the climate is pleasant and people tend to spend a lot of time outside. Another popular outdoor upgrade is landscaping, which can definitely add a lot of curb appeal to your home — just make sure that any landscaping you add is relatively low-maintenance and is acclimated to the weather where you live. Many younger buyers prioritize yards that are easy to maintain over the landscaped, golf-course-like expanses of grass that were popular a couple of decades ago, so if you're going to upgrade the outside of your house, make sure you're keeping them (and your own tastes, of course) in mind before you sink the money into your front or back yards.
Replace the floors
Your floors might be in impeccable shape, but if the carpeting is looking a little sad, or you've got a linoleum floor in the kitchen that hasn't changed since the house was built, it could be time for you to splurge on some updated flooring that brings your house into the new century. Even if you have hardwood flooring, if it's starting to show some wear and tear, then refinishing or upgrading it might be well worth your time — it'll make your home look nicer while you're there and increase the resale value when you're ready to move on.
Create a home office
More and more companies offer remote work as an option for employees or even a fully distributed workforce, and their employees need a quiet, inspirational place to work at home if that's part of their life. A home office can be a welcome addition to most households, whether it contains students who have homework or a family member who needs a little bit of space to go over the bills and organize the household on occasion. Some homes might not even require a full office; you might be surprised with what you can do with a little "laptop nook" with plenty of plugins and a wall-hanging desk to maximize space.
There are so many options when it comes to home improvement possibilities that it might seem hard to choose. Just remember that any upgrade you make needs to serve two main purposes: It should suit your current lifestyle in addition to (hopefully) boosting the resale value of your home. A full dollar-to-dollar return on your home sale investment probably isn't likely, but when you factor in the enjoyment that you and your family will get out of any improvements, you'll find that most of them are well worth what you'll spend — and then some.

TYR – New album out next March 8th !
This Friday (March 8th), the Faroe Islands' Tyr will release their eighth full-length, Hel, via Metal Blade Records. Hel is a collection of ruthlessly melodic and irresistibly compelling progressive folk metal that will immediately resonate with any who have followed the band at any point over the two decades of their storied career.
Known for their prolific nature – dropping their first five full-lengths in the space of just seven years – the six-year gap between Valkyrja (2013) and Hel is by far the longest between any two of their records. During that period the band toured hard, taking the album around the world, including a support run with Children Of Bodom in North America and two appearances on the 70,000 Tons Of Metal cruise.
However, other factors played into this extended break between releases. « We approached this one differently because I learned that if I continue doing albums in the way we had up to now, I would die from a heart attack before I'm 50! » says guitarist/vocalist Heri Joensen. « That's one of the reasons we changed our method and took such a long time on this one. » That this tactic has been beneficial is borne out in the finished product, which is perhaps more immersive than those that came before.
« Musically it leans a bit towards our album, 'Ragnarok' (2005), » states Thomsen. « It's a bit more epic and also much better worked through than any of our previous albums. » It also marks the recording debut of drummer Tadeusz Rieckmann, who has manned the drum throne for Tyr's live shows since 2016.

The Dislocation Effect
"When you called my name, I didn't know how far that calling went." is a lyric from The Newsboys 1994 album, Going Public. As a young Christian I daydreamed about just how far it actually would go. Now after following my Lord and my calling for two thirds of my life I am still exploring the extent of that truth. Many who answer the call to serve sacrificially across the street or across the world find that the true depths of their calling are yet to be discovered.
Unfortunately, one of the greatest obstacles to the individual Christian discovering the depths of their own unique calling is the uniformed system that exists to empower them to do so. Often an individual or family will give up almost everything to pursue their savior into new areas of obedience only to find that there are yet further fields to be traversed.
In other words, our lives, our callings and yes, our relationships are not static but dynamic. We are created in the image of a living God and we ourselves, are too, dynamic. Ever changing we are growing into the likeness of the One who first called us. This is ultimately not because we are good but that He is true to his Word; that as we are faithful with little He will entrust us with much (Luke 16:10, Matthew 25:23,28). As a result, all too often believers who have made this ultimate move of obedience find themselves in a place where they have given up everything to obey God only to find that He is asking them to do something new after their present season of obedience. They then find themselves in a dilemma; follow God in the new assignment or stay put with their current platform and circumstances for security and convenience.
I call this phenomenon The Dislocation Effect.
Much like a limb of the body that has been dislocated, the believer in this situation finds themselves - not lifeless but powerless. Why is the system working against them? Because it is upside down. When we are saved it is personal and unique and our callings are no different. Like the lyrics of the old hymn, In The Garden, "…and the joy we share as we terry there; none other has ever known." The system, however, does not recruit us for our uniqueness but our ability to support the vision of the larger organization. It is not about our calling but the organization's mission statement. As a father myself I can't even imagine how much more this grieves the heart of our doting heavenly Father. You see, we were made to become all we could be in our time and place for the glory of God and His Kingdom come (Acts 17:26). The system we plug into should cultivate us and our unique calling, not use our uniqueness and passion to further its own objectives.
So what should I do now?
The truth is God's word never returns void (Isaiah 55:11), and He will honor the faith of each and every believer willing to walk in their Kingdom identity (2 Corinthians 5:7). The existing system is not necessarily wrong but it is not optimal. So as we step forward in faith as we did in the first place, we step forward on God's grace and His provision alone. Too many missionaries and ministry leaders find themselves fossilized for simply not being willing to move yet again. They often feel they have given up everything to get to their current place of service and cannot imagine that they would need to do it anew. But the Lord is not after our tasks (Acts 17:24-25) as if He is needs anything. His Kingdom economy is after what is eternal in us, and He has invited us to serve with Him in this gospel.
Each of us has been uniquely qualified and called to partner with God in his mission of redemption. Our true fulfillment is in staying in step with Him as he leads us (John 15:4). Abiding does not simply mean to wait but rather to stay in step with God. This means waiting if God is still but it means moving promptly if He asks us to move.
What is your greatest expression of obedience in this season?
If He is asking you to stay and wait then that is abiding. If He is asking you to step out in faith in yet another act of obedience then that indeed is abiding. Which brings me back to the foundation of this article… our journey is unique and its truest form of worship is authentic obedience to God and how he has uniquely created and positioned you for His kingdom purposes.

Is Your Stockpicker Lucky or Good?
Investors pick active funds based on performance, but the long-term success of those managers is no more dependable than a coin flip
Is it luck or skill? Picking a fund manager who can beat the index is tough, but picking one who beats it through actual ability is far more difficult.
Victor Haghani, a co-founder of one of the best-known investment firms in history, says the most surprising thing is that people have great confidence that they can pick these super-talented fund managers. Currently the chief executive of Elm Partners, which espouses index investing for wealthy clients, Mr. Haghani will try to prove that to you with a simple test....

As Government Fist Tightens, Philadelphia Degenerates Into Anarchy
Posted by Dave Blount at March 22, 2010 9:08 AM
In Venezuela, even as Hugo Chavez consolidates totalitarian control over the government, the streets have descended into chaos. That oil-rich country's socialism-induced decline toward failed state status presages what Hope & Change are inflicting on America. The size and scope of our government are exploding; when the ramifications of the healthcare monstrosity are made clear, we will find that our very bodies are now federal property. Meanwhile, civil order collapses. From moonbattery-ravaged Philadelphia:
Business owners yesterday called on Mayor Nutter to stop "flash mobs" on South Street after patrons couldn't shop, dine or get home on Saturday night because of the hordes of teens roaming the neighborhood.
Inspired by Twitter messages to "come to South Street," police say hundreds - business owners say thousands - of young teens stampeded down South Street in waves, jumping on top of cars, knocking over pedestrians and fighting and cursing. …
The South Street business owners called on Nutter to impose a curfew of 10 p.m. or earlier after frightened managers locked their doors, only allowing customers inside.
Nutter did not return calls last night.
Philly's moonbat mayor wants to use taxation to micromanage our diets, while he conspicuously fails to manage major city streets sufficiently so that people can go about their business without being assailed by savage mobs.
Flash mob anarchy is getting to be a regular occurrence:
Saturday's was the sixth flash mob to hit the city since last May: three on South Street; two in the Gallery, including one that spread to Macy's; and one along Market Street East that spread to the area near City Hall.
Getting its way politically hasn't done much to improve the disposition of the entitlement class.
A pizza shop owner said that some in the mob were chanting, "Black Boys!" and "Burn the city."
One youth was overheard on his cell phone saying: "Bring baseball bats to South Street."
Those who finance our welfare state dystopia by running businesses and paying taxes didn't have as much fun as the marauding hordes.
About 10:30 p.m. on South near 6th, Olympia Pizza II employee Seth Kaufman, 20, was in front of the pizza shop, trying to prevent kids from coming inside to fight with young customers who were eating.
As the crowd pushed the door to get inside, Kaufman pushed back. The crowd pushed again, and inside, the owners, 66-year-old Peter Psihogios, his wife, Harula, 58, and son Paul, 30, were pushing back on the store's double glass doors to keep them shut.
Kaufman said that kids slugged him, and he slugged them back, and then he was jumped, with kids kicking and punching him until he fell.
The elder Psihogios tried to bring Kaufman inside, but he was punched in the head.
About 11 p.m. a 27-year-old woman was walking on South near 15th when a large group of male and female juveniles ganged up on her, kicking and punching her until she fell to the ground, where they continued to kick her in the face and head. She was taken to Hahnemann University Hospital, where she was treated for bruises, abrasions and a large laceration on her upper lip. She has since been released. No arrests were made.
Imagine how much fun they'll be to deal with when 2012 finally comes and their Marxist messiah gets voted out on his oversized ear — assuming this country is still civilized enough to hold elections in three years.
On a tip from Wiggins.

Browser reviews: Original take on the Jonestown Massacre
New paperbacks from Laura Elizabeth Woollett, Taylor Jenkins Reid and Hernan Diaz

Beautiful Revolutionary
Laura Elizabeth Woollett
In her latest novel, Beautiful Revolutionary, Laura Elizabeth Woollett recounts one of the world's most infamous disasters – the Jonestown Massacre – with originality. Woollett reclaims victims' narratives from sensationalist headlines and re-educates her readers through sharp, expertly crafted fiction.
The work follows the religious organisation the People's Temple from Evergreen Valley to Jonestown Guyana, where the mass suicide occurs. The novel's narrator alternates between chapters: from a young couple whose marriage dissolves under Temple leader Jim Jones; to a closeted police officer; a mixed race couple; Jones wife, and his lover's younger sister.
Woollett shifts time periods to illustrate characters lives before and after the People's Temple, highlighting their internal decay. Her economy of language is striking; certain chapters are a page in length, yet relay a multitude. A clear indication of her skill as a short story writer was made evident in her previous work The Love of a Bad Man.
However, there is no escaping the "revolutionary suicide", which froze Jonestown in popular culture. It is injected into every carefully composed sentence in which Woollett conflates violence with joy. Her depiction is remarkable for being unremarkable. "Most of the people, the ones still living, are huddled quietly, swallowing quietly." Anna Joyce
Daisy Jones & The Six
Taylor Jenkins Reid
Daisy Jones & The Six, in which a wild Californian singer and a tension-riven 1970s rock band recount how they united for their best-selling album, was a pre-publication smash the second it was optioned by Reese Witherspoon's company for an Amazon series.
Witherspoon has excellent taste. Fleetwood Mac is an obvious prototype, but Taylor Jenkins Reid has created her own fictional monster here. Inspired by the cautionary tales, public charades and behind-the-scenes miseries of the era (today, this "collab" would likely be recorded in separate studios), she has produced something new, funny and ultimately lovely.
With a delicious sleight of hand, the novel unfolds as a document of the glorious yet destructive chemistry between two stars: drug-addicted Daisy and The Six's rehabilitated frontman Billy Dunne. But it is as much a tribute to the men and women of the supporting cast – even the unattractively bitter ones – who help magic the most resonant of cultural moments into life. Song lyrics included. Laura Slattery
In the Distance
Hernan Diaz
Håkan, a young Swedish boy, arrives on the turbulent American continent in the 1850s where he loses his brother Linus, and spends the following years trying to reach New York to find him. Unpredictable, with a malevolent thrum, the novel reads like a fairytale collected by the Brothers Grimm – not least in that Håkan grows so tall as to be thought a giant, his colossal loneliness only overshadowed by the hopelessness of his odyssey. Grim too is his journey, where he meets cruelty, deprivation and disease. He travels through deserts and canyons, everything a wilderness, everywhere danger.
In an otherwise chaotic and pointless existence, the book examines the power of knowledge to transform and comfort, doing so through the teachers and guides who befriend Håkan, who open his heart to meaning, and to devastating losses. Underpinning everything is his indestructible but unwelcome compulsion to continue living, less determination than stoical resignation. Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize 2018, this strange, sinister tale bewitches, making the wild west of America as intense and otherworldly as any dark myth. Ruth McKee

Non-Tech Online Jobs: Retail and administrative positions make up a lot of job openings online. Within the retail industry, many work-from-home job seekers can find part-time work for companies like Amazon or Russell Stover as customer service representatives, merchandisers, secret shoppers, or sales representatives. Other employers are looking to hire project managers, executive assistants, content writers, and editors, insurance salespeople, claims adjusters, and even nurse practitioners to do online house calls.

Sessions focus on things like making professional small talk or running a meeting (trainers are provided with specifics on how to teach each topic, and are also trained themselves for two days before starting the job). Lessons take place either over the phone or on a live Internet video service like Skype — sometimes at night, because you're working with students in different time zones. You need to commit to a minimum of 20 hours a week at consistent times, and can work as many as 35 hours.

This is not some faraway reality — because of the interconnectivity and vast information access allowed by the internet, a growing number of companies are offering partial or full work-at-home opportunities, in a variety of fields. The 13 companies on this list are hiring for roles from transcription to software engineering to athletic recruiting. So regardless of your skill set, one of these companies could be your ticket to never having to get out of bed to go to work again.
This list is great, thanks! I wanted to point out, though, that it looks like at least some of the transcription jobs are listed as paying per audio hour which would work out to a lot less per hour of work. One hour of audio can take 3 to 4 hours for an experienced transcriber to complete, so $24/audio hour=$6-8/hour. Just something for people to be aware of.
Consider ergonomic best practices when choosing a desk, chair, keyboard, mouse, phone or headset, and other core pieces of your workspace.

Who can resist the dinging sound of a new email? You, that's who, especially if you want to stay on task. And forget about signing in to Facebook "just for a minute." It's easy to get distracted when you telecommute—unlikely distractions that just don't exist at work abound at home. At the office, for example, you might visit the company kitchen once in the morning and once in the afternoon for a cup of joe (because that's what's appropriate), but at home, you're hitting the fridge every hour on the hour. Or more.

Almost every big business has gotten on the social media bandwagon as a means to reach their customers directly, and without paying heavily for television, print, or radio ads. But not every big business has someone to manage their social media accounts, which is why more individuals have begun marketing themselves as social media managers and helping businesses grow their online following and expand their reach.
How to Get It: Check out K12 (K12.com) and Connections Academy (ConnectionsAcademy.com). Both organizations offer various benefits — including health insurance, retirement savings accounts and paid time off — depending on where you live. As in any job where you work with kids, there will be a background and reference check as well as interviews. You may also need to be licensed to teach in the state where the students reside.
That's not to say that blogging isn't a real work-from-home option. I personally know dozens of people who make more than six figures a year from their blog, including my own family. In fact, I'd highly encourage you to start a blog if you feel inclined. Eventually, it can be a great source of residual income. Just don't go into it thinking you're going to make a ton of money right out of the gate.
As more companies transition to a remote workforce, the number of virtual call center jobs increases. Often, experience in an office call center or even a retail job is enough to land a home-based call center job.

From 1 November 2019 onwards, CHAS will be extended to cover all Singapore Citizens with chronic conditions. This will to allow more Singaporeans to benefit from more affordable chronic care at participating CHAS clinics, and to enable greater anchoring of chronic care in the community. All Merdeka Generation seniors will also receive subsidies for medical and dental care at GP and dental clinics from 1 November 2019 onwards.

• Selected dental services e.g. crown, denture & root canal treatment; • Recommended health screening, Screen for Life by Health Promotion Board (HPB).
Who is eligible for CHAS and Enhanced CHAS?
Currently, to qualify for CHAS, applicants must be Singapore Citizens and meet the following criteria:
Singapore Citizens who have the Public Assistance (PA) card do not need to apply for CHAS, as they can already receive full CHAS subsidies by showing the PA card.
From 1 November 2019, all Singaporeans, regardless of income, will be eligible for Enhanced CHAS. CHAS benefits will be tiered according to income and Annual Value (AV), as indicated in the below table:
^ Household monthly income per person is the total gross household monthly income divided by total number of family members living together. Only family members living at the same address (as stated on the NRIC) and related by blood, marriage or legal adoption are included in the calculation. Gross monthly income refers to your basic income, overtime pay, allowances, cash awards, commissions and bonuses.
^^ AV is assessed by IRAS. An AV of up to $21,000 covers all HDB flats and some lower-value private residences.
What subsidies can I receive under CHAS?
There are currently two tiers of subsidy under CHAS, depending on the cardholder's household monthly income per person, and the CHAS PG tier for all Pioneers.
From 1 November 2019, all Singapore Citizens will be eligible for CHAS. There will be an additional Green Tier of subsidy under CHAS, depending on the cardholder's household monthly income per person or Annual Value of home. Merdeka Generation cardholders will also receive special CHAS subsidies at CHAS clinics.
Why is there a need for an additional tier on top of the existing two?
The new Green tier covers Singapore Citizens who were previously not eligible for CHAS. CHAS Green cardholders can now receive subsidies for their chronic conditions at participating GP clinics, for better chronic disease management.
The different tiers are in place to ensure that higher healthcare subsidies are targeted at the lower income Singapore Citizens who need more assistance with their medical expenses.
Why is the household monthly income per person cut-off set at $2,000 per household? How did MOH derive the income criterion of $2,000?
The income cut-off is to allow us to better target healthcare subsidies at Singapore Citizens from lower- to middle-income households. MOH will regularly review the income criterion to ensure that healthcare remains accessible to all Singaporeans.
If my household income level changes within the validity period, will I be moved from one subsidy tier to the next?
Do CHAS cards have a validity period? What should I do when my card expires?
CHAS cards typically have a validity period of two years unless otherwise indicated on the card. You will need to renew your CHAS card before it expires, and the process will be triggered about 3 months before the expiry date.
Existing cardholders will have their cards automatically processed for renewal 3 months before their cards' expiry, if there are no significant changes in their household composition. They will be assessed for a CHAS tier based on their latest household circumstances and will receive a letter enclosing their new CHAS card.
All other cardholders who did not undergo auto-renewal will receive a renewal invitation letter by mail, and will need to submit a renewal application to continue receiving CHAS subsidies after their current card expires. Starting September 2019, they may submit the renewal application online at www.chas.sg/apply, by logging in with their SingPass account. Alternatively, they may complete and sign the enclosed hardcopy application form, and mail the completed form to Bukit Merah Central Post Office, P.O. Box 680, Singapore 911536.
What should I do if my household did not receive the invitation letter for renewal?
If your household did not receive the renewal invitation letter two months before your cards expire, and also did not receive a new CHAS card automatically processed for renewal, you should submit a renewal application form to continue receiving CHAS subsidies after your current card expires.
Starting September 2019, you may do so online at www.chas.sg/apply by logging in with your SingPass account. Alternatively, you may complete a hardcopy application form available here (or pick one up at any Community Centre or Club (CC), Community Development Council (CDC), Public Hospital or Polyclinic), and mail the completed form to Bukit Merah Central Post Office, P.O. Box 680, Singapore 911536.
What should I do if I lose my card? How can I get a replacement card if I have lost my card?
You should call the CHAS hotline at 1800-275-2427 (1800-ASK-CHAS) immediately for a replacement card. The CHAS hotline operates from Mondays to Fridays, 8.30am to 6.00pm (excluding Public Holidays).
What is the difference between the Pioneer/Merdeka Generation card and the CHAS card?
CHAS provides subsidies for visits at participating CHAS GP and dental clinics. Currently, only Singapore Citizens who meet the CHAS eligibility criteria (based on income or Annual Value of their property) will qualify for the Blue or Orange CHAS card.
From 1 November 2019 onwards, CHAS will be extended to cover all Singapore Citizens with chronic conditions to allow more Singaporeans to benefit from more affordable chronic care at participating CHAS GP clinics. All Singapore Citizens who apply for CHAS will receive CHAS cards, with benefits tiered according to household monthly income per person or Annual Value of home.
The cards are typically valid for two years. With the CHAS card, cardholders can get subsidies at CHAS clinics. During the CHAS application process, CHAS applicants are also assessed for eligibility for higher subsidies at the Specialist Outpatient Clinics (SOCs) in the public hospitals, and CHAS Blue/Orange cardholders would generally qualify.
On the other hand, every Pioneer, regardless of income or housing type, has a Pioneer Generation (PG). All Merdeka Generation seniors will also receive a MG card. The PG or MG card is valid for life. With the PG card, Pioneers can receive special subsidies at CHAS clinics, and an additional 50% off subsidised services and drugs at the Specialist Outpatient Clinics (SOCs) at Public Hospitals and Polyclinics. With the MG card, MG seniors can receive special subsidies at CHAS clinics, and an additional 25% off subsidised services and drugs at the SOCs in Public Hospitals and Polyclinics, from 1 November onwards.
· Applying for CHAS
How can I apply for CHAS?
Starting September 2019, Singaporeans can apply for CHAS online. Singapore Citizens aged 21 years and older may access the online application with their SingPass and submit the application on behalf of his/her household members.
Alternatively, you may download a hardcopy application form here, or pick one up at any Community Centre/Club (CC), Community Development Council (CDC), Public Hospital or Polyclinic. Once completed, please mail the form (and supporting documents, if any) to P.O. Box 680, Bukit Merah Central Post Office, Singapore 911536.
MOH has simplified the CHAS application process to make it more convenient for applicants. With the changes, only one household member needs to apply for CHAS on behalf of his/her household members. The household members will be kept informed by text message and/or hardcopy letter, depending on the notification preference indicated in the application.
Why should I apply for CHAS? How will I benefit from it?
As a CHAS cardholder, you will receive subsidies for medical care and dental care at CHAS clinics conveniently located near your homes.
There is no application fee, annual fee or monthly premium for being a CHAS cardholder.
Applicants will also be assessed for higher subsidies at public Specialist Outpatient Clinics (SOCs) and polyclinics at the same time. Lower- to middle-income households will receive higher subsidies for subsidised SOC services and outpatient medications.
Can I submit both an online application and a hardcopy application form?
You should only submit one CHAS application – either online or hardcopy.
If you have not received any notification on your application status after 15 working days, you may call the CHAS hotline at 1800-275-2427 (1800 ASK-CHAS) to enquire about your status.
What is the purpose of the QR code on the application form?
I have already filled in a previous version of the application form. Can I still send it in?
Applicants are encouraged to apply for CHAS using the online application or the simplified hardcopy application form (i.e. version dated July 2019). These are more convenient, as only one household member needs to apply on behalf of his/her household members. Other household members will be kept informed by text message and/or hardcopy letter, depending on the notification preference indicated in the application.
The previous versions of the hardcopy application form (i.e. versions dated January 2014 to September 2017) will continue to be accepted for processing up till 31 December 2019. During this time, please note that all household members declared on the form will be required to provide consent and to acknowledge the terms and conditions, by signing the form.
What does "Main Applicant" mean? Who can submit a CHAS application as the Main Applicant?
Under the simplified application process, the Main Applicant is the person who submits a CHAS application on behalf of his/her household members. He/she has the responsibility to inform his/her household members of the application.
Singapore Citizens aged 21 years and above can be the Main Applicant for their household, using either the online or hardcopy application. Main Applicants using the online application would also require a valid SingPass to login.
For minors below 21 years of age
If a Singapore Citizen minor wishes to apply for CHAS as the Main Applicant, he/she may only apply using the hardcopy application form, and would require a parent or legal guardian to provide consent on their behalf.
For mentally incapacitated persons
If a mentally incapacitated person is to be designated as the Main Applicant, he/she may only apply using the hardcopy application form.
As he/she is unable to provide consent due to mental incapacitation, he/she would require a (i) donee appointed under a Lasting Power of Attorney, or (ii) deputy appointed by the Court under the Mental Capacity Act (Cap. 177A), to provide consent on his/her behalf. If he/she has no done or deputy, and has no other Singapore Citizen family members sharing the same NRIC address that can serve as the Main Applicant, a doctor's certification of inability to give consent due to mental incapacity would need to be submitted.
Who should I include in my CHAS application as part of my household? Who will receive CHAS cards?
CHAS considers all family members related by blood, marriage and/or legal adoption (e.g. spouse, parents, children, grandparents, grandchildren, siblings, uncles, aunts, cousins and in-laws) and who live at the same address (as reflected on the NRIC), as members of your household. Please include all such family members in your application.
Domestic helpers, unrelated tenants, godparents and friends living at the same address are not considered members of your household. Family members not living at the same NRIC address are also not considered members of your household.
Only Singapore Citizens are eligible for CHAS and will receive CHAS cards. However, please include PR and FIN-holder family members when declaring your household as they are included in the calculation of household monthly income per person.
What information do I need to provide to apply for CHAS? Is the information required for the online application and hardcopy form the same?
The information required from Main Applicants for the online application and hardcopy form is generally the same.
In both forms, Main Applicants would need to declare their household members. The online application provides added convenience by pre-filling the Main Applicant's household members (i.e. family members sharing the same NRIC address) based on Government records. As a Main Applicant, you would simply need to verify the household members shown, provide their contact details, and declare their relationship to you.
Main Applicants using the hardcopy form would need fill in the names, NRIC numbers, contact details, and their relationship to you, of all family members sharing the same NRIC address.
Main Applicants need not declare their/their household members' incomes.
How do I verify the household member information shown to me in the online application?
The online application e-service displays the Main Applicant's household members, based on Government records. The household composition should reflect all family members sharing the same NRIC address.
As a Main Applicant, you should verify that the household composition shown is correct. If it is correct, you should confirm your household composition and proceed with the online application. If the household composition shown is incorrect, you should update it by adding or removing the relevant family members, before continuing with the online application. Please note that we may contact you for further clarification and supporting documents if you have updated your household composition.
Do I need to mail any supporting documents after submitting my CHAS application online?
When the Main Applicant has submitted a CHAS application on behalf of his/her household members, how will the other household members be kept aware?
Under the simplified application process, the Main Applicant has the responsibility to inform his/her household members that he/she is submitting a CHAS application on their behalf.
Upon receipt of the CHAS application, a letter of acknowledgement will be sent to the household (at the Main Applicant's residential address, as reflected on his/her NRIC). Other eligible family members who indicated SMS as a notification preference will also be individually notified of the CHAS application through SMS.
I am the Main Applicant and am applying on behalf of my household. What am I consenting to/declaring when I apply for CHAS?
As the Main Applicant, you would need to declare that you understand the Terms and Conditions of the CHAS application on behalf of your family, and that the information you have provided, including that of your family, is accurate. You are also consenting to the disclosure of your/your family's personal information collected in the application with other Government agencies, for the purposes of administering services and schemes.
Please note that under the simplified application process, the Main Applicant has the responsibility to inform all family members about the application on their behalf, before submitting the CHAS application.
What information is used to assess my household's eligibility for CHAS? What is household monthly income per person and how is it calculated?
Your household's eligibility for CHAS is assessed based on household monthly income per person (for households with income), and Annual Value of home (based on NRIC address, for households without income). Household monthly income per person is the total gross household monthly income divided by the total number of family members (related by blood, marriage and/or legal adoption, sharing the same NRIC address). Gross household monthly income refers to your basic employment income, trade/self-employed income, overtime pay, allowances, cash awards, commissions, and bonuses, as obtained from CPFB or IRAS.
For example, a family of four with a total gross household monthly income of $7,200 has a household monthly income per person of $1,800 ($7,200 ÷ 4 family members = $1,800). Click here to use our Household Monthly Income Per Person Calculator.
The Annual Value of your home is the estimated annual rent if it is rented out. It is assessed by IRAS.
How will I receive the outcome of my CHAS application?
You and your household members will receive the application outcome by mail. Successful applicants will receive a welcome pack which will include their CHAS card. Information on the use of the card and participating CHAS clinics will also be included.
You may also view the outcome of your CHAS application online when available, by logging in to the CHAS online application e-service (www.chas.sg/apply).
What is the approximate processing time for a CHAS application?
Generally, your application will be processed within 15 working days from the date of receipt of the completed application form.
You may view your latest application status through the CHAS online application e-service (www.chas.sg/apply). If you have not received the outcome after 15 working days, you may call the CHAS hotline to enquire about your application status.
I am unable to access the online application. What should I do?
I have a family member who is on the Public Assistance (PA) scheme. Do I have to indicate his/her details in the application form?
I have a family member who is a Pioneer / Merdeka Generation (PG/MG) cardholder. Do I have to indicate his/her details in the application form?
As a Pioneer Generation / Merdeka Generation senior, should I still apply for CHAS?
Pioneer Generation (PG) and Merdeka Generation (MG) seniors already enjoy special PG/MG CHAS benefits when visiting CHAS GP and dental clinics, with their PG/MG cards.
However, PG and MG seniors are still encouraged to apply for a CHAS card, as their eligibility for higher healthcare subsidies will be assessed at the same time. Lower- to middle-income MG seniors (i.e. those who are eligible for Blue or Orange CHAS cards) will enjoy higher subsidies for subsidised services at the public Specialist Outpatient Clinics (SOCs), and subsidised outpatient medications. (The additional subsidies that PG/MG seniors receive as part of the PG and MG package will be applied on top of these higher subsidies.)
· Usage of CHAS
How do I use my CHAS card?
To enjoy subsidies at CHAS clinics, please present your CHAS or Pioneer Generation card with your NRIC during the visit, and we encourage clinics to check with their patients at the point of registration. For cardholders below 15 years old, please present your CHAS card with student ID or birth certificate.
Please note that by using your CHAS or Pioneer Generation card at a CHAS clinic, you agree to allow your doctor/dentist to disclose your personal information to the Ministry of Health (including its authorised agents). Please click here for more details on the CHAS patient consent.
*Merdeka Generation cards will be accepted at CHAS clinics from 1 November 2019 onwards.
Can my CHAS card be shared?
Can I use the CHAS card at any private GP and dental clinic? How do I know whether a clinic is participating in CHAS?
Not all GPs and/or dental clinics are participating in the scheme. CHAS clinics can be easily identified by the CHAS sticker displayed.
Where can I find the list of participating CHAS clinics?
The updated list of participating clinics can also be found at the following websites:
What are the likely fees that I have to pay at the participating clinic using my CHAS card?
Patients are expected to co-pay for their treatment under CHAS. CHAS clinics are expected to charge CHAS patients reasonable fees for the medical and dental treatments provided under CHAS.
We encourage you to check with your doctor or dentist on the likely fees that you will be charged before proceeding with your treatment(s). The treatment required and the fees will vary according to each patient's condition. The amount you pay will be based on the fees charged by the clinic, minus your CHAS subsidies.
From 1 January 2017, it is compulsory for all CHAS GP and dental clinics to issue itemised bills to all CHAS patients. The itemised bill must at least state (i) the total charges before CHAS subsidy (with a breakdown into Consultation, Medication, Investigation and Others for medical bills or individual dental procedures for dental bills); (ii) the total CHAS subsidy given; and (iii) the remaining amount that you pay. You should get an itemised bill from the clinic even if your bill is fully covered by CHAS subsidies and you do not make any out-of-pocket payment.
A typical bill would include components such as consultation, medication and investigation/tests. The amount you pay will be based on the fees charged by the clinic, minus your CHAS subsidies.
Minimum level of bill itemisation required (GP clinics):
For more information on the charges, please contact the respective clinic which you have visited for the details. Please take note that clinics have been advised to charge their list prices and deduct the subsidies accordingly from the total charges.
Minimum level of bill itemisation required (Dental clinics):
For more information on the charges, please contact the respective clinic which you have visited for the details. Please take note that clinics have been advised to charge their list prices and deduct the subsidies accordingly from the total charges.
Please click here for more details on the dental subsidy rates.
Can I also use Medisave to help pay for my bill after deducting the CHAS subsidies?
Patients can use their own or their immediate family members' Medisave accounts, up to the withdrawal limit of $500 per account per year for outpatient treatment of chronic conditions.
Medisave can be used to co-pay the remaining bill after deducting the CHAS subsidies. After deducting the CHAS subsidies, you will need to co-pay 15% of the remaining bill in cash, while the rest can be claimed from Medisave.
However, some clinics may prefer to use only one mode of payment during one visit. You may wish to check with your preferred CHAS GP clinic before heading down for a consultation.
Example of a chronic visit for a blue CHAS cardholder with the usage of Medisave:
List price of components that make up the total bill

This is the amount of CHAS subsidies you are claiming for this visit

Amount due after deduction of CHAS subsidies
Cash Co-payment (15% of Remainder)
This is the part of remainder which you will need to pay out-of-pocket
Medisave Claimable
This is how much you can claim from Medisave.
For chronic conditions, there is a Simple and Complex subsidy tier. How do I know which tier I am eligible for?
The tier is determined based on the complexity of your chronic condition(s). "Simple" refers to visits for one chronic condition. "Complex" refers to visits for two or more chronic conditions, or one chronic condition with complication(s). Your GP can advise you which chronic subsidy tier you are eligible for.
Can I visit a CHAS General Practitioner (GP) to seek treatment for my chronic and common illnesses simultaneously?
Yes, you can seek treatment for multiple conditions simultaneously. However, only one CHAS claim can be made for each visit, for the primary purpose of the visit, e.g. if your primary purpose is to follow up on your hypertension treatment but at the same time seek treatment for flu, you would only be able to make one claim under CHAS Chronic (covering both hypertension and flu).
Is there a limit on the number of visits I can make?
You are encouraged to visit the same family doctor each time you are unwell so that the doctor is familiar with your personal and family's medical history. This will enable your doctor to effectively and holistically manage your medical conditions.
For common illnesses, it is not expected that more than four visits per month would be required.
For chronic conditions, on average, patients are expected to make about four visits per calendar year to the GP for the management and treatment of their condition(s).
These guidelines have been put in place to ensure that patients with multiple, frequent visits and might potentially require specialist or hospital care are reviewed in a timely manner.
From 2020, MOH will be instituting a limit on the number of visits for common illnesses allowed under CHAS to be 24 per year per patient, across all CHAS clinics. We have assessed that it is not expected that more than 24 visits per year would be required for common illnesses. This guideline has been put in place to limit potential abuse of subsidies and to ensure that patients with multiple, frequent visits and might potentially require specialist or hospital care are reviewed in the appropriate setting in a timely manner.
Can my CHAS GP refer me to a Specialist Outpatient Clinic (SOC)? Will I be considered a subsidised patient at the SOC?
Yes, if you have been assessed to require specialist care and hold a Health Assist or Pioneer Generation card, your CHAS GP can make a referral for you to visit a public hospital Specialist Outpatient Clinic (SOC). You will be considered as a subsidised patient and will receive care from a team of doctors. Patients who wish to choose a specific doctor will have to pay private rates.
Upon referral, do bring along your NRIC and CHAS Referral Form, during your first visit to the subsidised SOC.
For more information on enhanced subsidy at SOC, please visit here.
Can I use the CHAS card at the polyclinic?
All Singaporeans already receive heavy Government subsidies at the polyclinics. As such, CHAS subsidies are not applicable at the polyclinics, and are intended only for private GP and dental clinics.
If I am currently being seen at the polyclinic for my chronic conditions but wish to seek treatment with my GP clinic under CHAS, what do I need to do to ensure continuity of care?
For a Pioneer with both the Pioneer Generation card and CHAS card, which card should he/she bring when visiting a CHAS clinic?
· Recommended Health Screening, Screen for Life (SFL) by Health Promotion Board (HPB)
· What is Screen for Life?
· What is the enhanced Screen for Life (SFL) subsidy?
Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Health Promotion Board (HPB) are enhancing the Screen for Life (SFL) programme to encourage eligible Singaporeans to go for recommended health screenings and post-screening follow-up. Besides Pioneer Generation (PG) and CHAS cardholders, all other Singaporeans can also access subsidised screening and one follow-up consultation (if needed) at a low, fixed fee, as long as they are recommended by HPB to go for screening. These screening services are only available at CHAS GP clinics.
With the Screen for Life invitation letter, CHAS Blue, Orange and Merdeka Generation* cardholders will need to pay a fixed fee of $2, for recommended screening test(s) and first post-screening consultation, if required. CHAS Green* cardholders will need to pay $5. Eligible Pioneers will not have to pay.
Screening test(s) done at a separate visit will be charged a separate fixed fee.
For example, an eligible CHAS cardholder will pay $2, and this will cover the costs of the screening visit which could include screening tests for cardiovascular risk and/or colorectal cancer and/or cervical cancer screening, and the consultation fees for one follow-up visit, if required
Table 1:Enhanced SFL Co-payment
Permanent Residents (PR) who are due for recommended health screenings will be notified by HPB. While PRs are not eligible for enhanced SFL subsidies, they can continue to tap on HPB's screening test rate(s) at CHAS GP clinics. The prevailing doctor consultation rates will be charged accordingly by the respective CHAS GP clinics.
*Only applicable from 1 November onwards.
· What services does the SFL co-payment cover?

also depends on when your last screening visit was and whether you had been
diagnosed with chronic diseases or selected cancers (breast, cervical and
colorectal) before.
All eligible Singaporeans will receive a letter of invitation from HPB informing them of the
scheme. Upon receiving the letter, we strongly encourage you to make an
appointment with your preferred CHAS GP. On the appointment date, please
present the letter, your NRIC, and CHAS/PG/PA* card, to qualify for the
subsidised rate.
*Eligible Public Assistance (PA) card holders will
receive the same subsidies as PG cardholders i.e. no need for co-payment.

(cont'd) can I get a subsidised referral to Specialist Outpatient Clinics at Public Hospitals?
If you are a valid Health Assist cardholder and have gone to a CHAS GP clinic for your recommended health screening under the Screen for Life (SFL) programme, the CHAS GP clinic will be able to provide you with a subsidised referral to the Specialist Outpatient Clinics (SOCs) at the public hospitals, in the event of an abnormal screening result that warrants further investigation and/or treatment.
This is no different from the current practice where a CHAS GP clinic can provide subsidised SOC referrals for CHAS patients. If patients indicate that they would like to see a specific doctor, they will be charged at prevailing private rates.
· What happens if my CHAS card has expired? Will I still be eligible for the screening subsidies?
· Will screening subsidies at the CHAS GP clinic be applicable for other health screening tests that are not under the SFL programme?

You may contact the Singapore Medical Council (SMC) or the Singapore Dental Council (SDC), which are the regulatory authorities charged with guarding against medical/dental incompetence and professional negligence committed by doctors or dentists respectively.
How would I know if I am receiving the correct subsidy from the clinic, and how much subsidy the clinic is claiming from Government in my name?
From 1 January 2017, it is compulsory for all CHAS GP and dental clinics to issue you an itemised bill for your visit. The itemised bill must at least state (i) the total charges before CHAS subsidy (with a breakdown into Consultation, Medication, Investigation and Others for medical bills or individual dental procedures for dental bills); (ii) the total CHAS subsidy given; and (iii) the remaining amount that you pay. This will give you a clearer understanding of the treatments and subsidies received. You should get an itemised bill from the clinic even if your bill is fully covered by CHAS subsidies and you do not make any out-of-pocket payment. If you have any queries on the bill, you are encouraged to speak to your clinic.
In addition, you can check your CHAS claims history and annual subsidy balance, by logging in to MyCHAS using your SingPass on the CHAS website (www.chas.sg), or calling the CHAS hotline (1800-275- 2427). You can also update your personal particulars through MyCHAS or the CHAS hotline.
· Enhanced CHAS
Why did the Government enhance CHAS?
What are the enhancements to CHAS?
There will be a new CHAS Green Tier, with the following eligibility criteria:
The new CHAS Green tier will cover simple and complex chronic conditions as follows:
Orange Cardholders can now enjoy subsidies for common illnesses, of up to $10 per visit.
Blue and Orange complex chronic subsidies will be enhanced; cardholders can enjoy up to an additional $20 in complex chronic subsidies annually.
Enhanced Blue tier:
Enhanced Orange tier:
All Merdeka Generation cardholders will also receive special subsidies at CHAS GPs.
How will Enhanced CHAS help Singapore Citizens?
Enhanced CHAS allows more Singaporeans to benefit from more affordable chronic care at participating CHAS GP clinics, and to strengthen primary care as the medical home of patients. All Singaporeans are now eligible for CHAS.
Please refer to the below table for a detailed breakdown of subsidies according to the different tiers.
Will there be an increase in coverage of chronic conditions?
Why are common illnesses and dental procedures not covered under the Green tier?
Will MG cardholders receive subsidies for dental services?
From 1 November onwards, MGs will be receiving additional subsidies for dental services of up to $261.50 per procedure at CHAS dental clinics. Please refer to the updated list of dental procedures covered on www.chas.sg here.

For MG:
From 1 November onwards, MGs can enjoy special CHAS subsidies. Please refer to the following table for the detailed breakdown of subsidies that Merdeka Generation seniors are eligible for.
For PG:
You will still continue to enjoy existing CHAS benefits under the Pioneer Generation tier as follows:
Will CHAS Green cardholders be able to enjoy higher subsidies at public hospitals?
Can CHAS Green cardholder qualify for subsidised referrals to SOCs in public hospitals?
As both CHAS Green and MG cardholders are considered subsidised medical patients, CHAS Green and MG cardholders can also enjoy subsidised referrals to medical SOCs.
However, as CHAS Green cardholders do not receive dental subsidies, they would not qualify for subsidised referrals to dental SOCs.
Since every Singapore Citizen is now eligible for the enhanced CHAS, do I still need to submit an application form?
Although every Singapore Citizen is eligible for the enhanced CHAS, the enrolment onto CHAS is still on an application basis. To enjoy subsidies under the enhanced CHAS, you will need to submit an application to receive your CHAS card.
MOH will be launching an online application in Sept 2019. For your convenience, you may wish to apply then via online.
I recently got rejected from CHAS, does this mean I can reapply now for Enhanced CHAS?
I am currently a CHAS cardholder. Do I need to re-apply to enjoy the enhanced CHAS benefits?
How do I submit an application for the enhanced CHAS?
You can still apply for the existing CHAS scheme via this route:
Application forms are available at
a) any Community Centre or Club (CC),
b) Community Development Council (CDC),
c) Public Hospital or Polyclinic.
d) The forms can also be downloaded here. You may use the business reply envelope to mail your completed application form and the supporting documents to P.O. Box 680, Bukit Merah Central Post Office, Singapore 911536.

What is the difference between the "Health Assist" card and "CHAS" card?
Since March 2019, we have revised the branding of the CHAS card from "Health Assist" to "CHAS". Apart from the change in the design of the card, there are no further differences between the 2 cards.
You should continue to use your existing "Health Assist" card till the end of the validity period that is indicated on card. The CHAS clinics will still recognise your "Health Assist" card, as long as it is still valid.
Successful CHAS applicants will be issued with the new "CHAS" card design from March onwards.
When can I get the new CHAS card?
I am a Pioneer, why do I still receive a PG-Green CHAS card/ CHAS Green card with a PG indicator?
The PG-Green CHAS card was issued, taking into account your latest means-test status. You will continue to be eligible for your Pioneer CHAS benefits by showing your existing PG card at the CHAS GPs.
Alternatively, should you lose your existing PG card, you may also show your PG-Green CHAS card at the CHAS GPs for subsidies while waiting for your replacement PG card to arrive.
Do I bring my CHAS card or my PG/MG card when I visit the CHAS clinic?
Why is there an indicator "PG/MG" at the top right hand corner of the CHAS card that I received?
The "PG"/"MG" indicator at the top right hand corner of CHAS cards indicates that the cardholder is a PG/MG cardholder. Should PG/MG cardholders forget to bring their PG/MG cards to CHAS clinics, this indication will allow them to be accorded special CHAS subsidies (after 1 November 2019 for MGs).
You are encouraged to bring your PG/MG card when you visit the CHAS clinic. However, if you have misplaced your PG/MG card or left it at home, you may also bring your PG-CHAS/MG-CHAS card to the CHAS clinic and it will also be recognised by CHAS clinics.
