COVID-19 screening programme: Socso urges clinics, hospitals to charge minimum service fee

The Social Security Organisation (Socso) would only bear the cost of RTK-Antigen test kits and no longer provide screening subsidies or receive payment claims from employers, clinics or hospitals.

To reduce the cost of screening tests, Socso has obtained the supply of test kits directly from suppliers and distributed them to clinics and hospitals participating in the COVID-19 Screening Programme for Foreign Workers.

However, Socso has urged clinics and hospitals to charge a minimum service fee on employers who want to do a COVID-19 screening test on their foreign workers.
