Teleconsultation

SATA CommHealth's video teleconsultation runs 24 hours a day through the SATA Public App for people who are physically in Singapore. Doctors are assigned by availability, so you can't choose one. Where appropriate, they can prescribe medication and issue an e-MC or a referral letter.

Medication is delivered every day, including public holidays. Prescriptions issued between 8am and 5:59pm arrive within 6 hours or by 10pm, whichever is earlier; later ones arrive by noon the next day. Payment is by credit card, and SATA CommHealth says CHAS and MediSave cannot be used for teleconsultations.

The app does not currently work on Huawei phones. Teleconsultation is not for emergencies such as chest pain, severe breathing difficulty, seizures or suspected fractures. Call 995 or go to the nearest A&E instead.
