Initial Deposit
Please note that the deposit is non-interest bearing and will be refunded by a crossed cheque when treatment has been completed, and all fees and charges (including charges for the services rendered by other persons or institutions in the course of treatment) have been paid. The Account Payee will be the same as the one you provided at the time of registration. Any request for changes to Account Payee must be made in writing.
If you fail to settle your fees and charges before the date specified on any demand note, the deposit will be used to offset against the outstanding bills until exhausted.

Subsequent request for refund of the deposit will be subject to approval on case-by-case basis.
Private Patients Fees
Please ask your attending clinician(s) about the treatment fees and charges (inclusive of charges for radiodiagnostic services, dental appliances and other cost recoverable items) which may vary with individuals’ oral condition. The price ranges for some of the fee items are uploaded onto the schedule of fees page for reference.
During your treatment in this Hospital, if services from other persons or institutions are needed (e.g. pathology testing or radiodiagnostic services), you also have to pay the corresponding charges. If situation allows, service providers will charge you direct; otherwise, you have to pay the charges through the Hospital together with an administrative overhead charged by the Hospital.
