escapades of the elusive kat

After my second session and getting the receipts my colleague reminded me that I need a referral from a “western doctor” (I think that’s general practitioner)for the company medical insurance to accept this claim. Anyway, the treatment isn’t breaking my bank. I’ll just submit those bills and if they get accepted then yay.

The medical system is different here I guess. If I went to the government hospital or health centres, then I’d have a lengthy wait for the general practitioner to refer me anywhere, and the govt hospital has a long wait time.

Then there are private clinics you can go anytime you want, as long as there’s a vacancy. And usually there is. I’m lucky I have the chance to get reimbursed from my company insurance, but this is like my 4th claim ever in my 14 years so working there so I’m not exactly sure of the paperwork required. I usually just go to the panel doctors and don’t have to worry about claiming and reimbursements.
