PM says Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) will extend to all Singaporeans, regardless of income level, but only those with chronic illnesses.
Maybe need to rename to Chronic Health Assist Money or CHAM.

HEALTHCARE AFFORDABILITY: Qualifying age for the Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) at 40 years and above will be removed from next year – this means all Singaporeans in lower- and middle-income households can access subsidised medical and dental care at over 800 private clinics. http://cna.asia/17nCbV2
See table below for the updated qualifying criteria for CHAS.
Many of you have shared with me your worries about healthcare costs. You can do something about it by signing up for CHAS, the Community Health Assist Scheme. CHAS will help pay for treatment by GPs and dental clinics near your home, so that it becomes like visiting a polyclinic.
We recently improved CHAS to benefit more Singaporeans. Saw this homely video clip on TV last night, which tells you more about CHAS. Please sign up for yourself and your loved ones, and spread the word to your neighbours and friends! — LHL
