MOH gives a distracting reply on Eldershield


ElderShield
not the sole means of funding long-term care of seniors

WHILE ElderShield is an integral part
of the funding system for long-term care of the elderly,
it is not the sole means of paying for such care
('ElderShield payout inadequate' by Mr Tan Kin Lian; last Saturday).

Bey Mui Leng (Ms), Director, Corporate Communications
Ministry of Health

    Here is the letter that I sent to the Straits Times. http://tankinlian.blogspot.com/2012/05/suggestions-to-improve-eldershield.html

    I mentioned 3 key points that the Government should consider. None of them are mentioned in the reply from the Ministry of Health. They distract from the key points.

    This is quite typical of replies from our Government ministries.
