A serious illness or accident can plunge a family into hardship, leading to a loss of financial stability. Through our Medical Assistance, Tzu Chi provides direct and timely support to families in need, offering patients stability and their loved ones peace of mind.<\/p><p>For long-term beneficiary families facing financial constraints, rising medical costs can outstrip government subsidies and allowances. In such cases, Tzu Chi steps in to bridge the gap. Beyond subsidising medical expenses, we also provide essential medical consumables such as adult diapers, stoma bags, and nutritional milk. Our island-wide volunteers sort and personally deliver these supplies monthly, bringing not just material aid, but also warmth and compassionate care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f107cb4 elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"f107cb4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"http:\/\/uat.tzuchi.org.sg\/contact-us\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"hm hm-arrow-right\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Apply for Medical Assistance<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-82be366 elementor-widget__width-inherit ha-has-bg-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"82be366\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><h2>Timely Support, Renewed Hope<\/h2><\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4de0543 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4de0543\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>How I Picked Myself Up from a Low Point in Life<\/strong><\/a>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28984bf elementor-widget__width-inherit ha-has-bg-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"28984bf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><h2>Types of Medical Assistance<\/h2><\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b420fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6b420fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"ul-listing\"><li>Medical Consumables Subsidy<\/li><li>Day Care Fees Subsidy<\/li><li>Hepatitis C Medication Fees Subsidy (Referral via Halfway House)<\/li><li>HIV Medication Fees Subsidy (Referral via Hospital Social Worker)<\/li><li>Medical Transport Fees Subsidy (Referral via Hospital Social Worker)<\/li><li>Antenatal Check Fees Subsidy (Referral via Hospital Social Worker)<\/li><li>Interim Dialysis Assistance (IDA) (Referral via Hospital Social Worker)<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70f0a74 elementor-widget__width-inherit ha-has-bg-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"70f0a74\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><h3>Renal Support Programme<\/h3><\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bda70e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bda70e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Every day, approximately six people in Singapore are diagnosed with kidney failure.
