2024年4月3日，新加坡卫生部长王乙康在国会上关于努力提高覆盖面，探索负担得起的精神健康服务的替代或补贴模式的发言。
以下内容为新加坡眼根据国会英文资料翻译整理：
议员叶汉荣先生（杨厝港选区）提问卫生部长：
（a）政府将如何与保险业合作，改善精神健康服务的保障范围，以确保病人能获得负担得起的及时干预治疗；
（b）是否有计划与私营机构合作，探索心理健康护理的替代融资或补贴模式。
卫生部长王乙康：（a）部分的答案已在2023年11月6日发布的书面答复通知中说明，请参阅“心理健康保险覆盖”的官方报告（2023年11月6日，第95卷，第115期，书面答复部分）。
政府不提供资金在私立医院补贴心理健康护理，因为新加坡人可以在公立医院和综合诊所获得高达80%的心理健康服务补贴。我们将继续扩大公立医院和综合诊所的精神卫生服务能力。
在初级护理体系中，参加社保援助计划(CHAS)的新加坡人、建国一代 (PG) 和立国一代(MG)都有资格在精选的纳入社保援助计划的私人全科医生诊所获得心理健康状况（包括抑郁、焦虑、双相和精神分裂症）的补贴。这些诊所同时在慢性疾病管理计划（CDMP）下提供服务，个人还可以使用保健储蓄（MediSave）支付这些全科诊所的慢性疾病管理计划治疗费用。
目前，已有超过450名全科医生在“心理健康全科医生合作伙伴计划”下接受了心理健康专业人员的培训。政府的目标是到2030年在1350家“健康SG”全科医生诊所提供心理健康服务。
以下是英文质询内容：
Mr Yip Hon Weng asked the Minister for Health (a) how will the Government work with the insurance industry to improve coverage for mental healthcare services to ensure patients can access affordable and timely intervention; and (b) whether there are plans to explore alternative financing or subsidy models for mental health care in collaboration with the private sector.
Mr Ong Ye Kung: The answer to part (a) of the question has been addressed in the Circular for Written Answers published on 6 November 2023. [Please refer to "Mental Health Insurance Coverage", Official Report, 6 November 2023, Vol 95, Issue 115, Written Answers to Questions section.]
The Government does not fund private hospitals to deliver subsidised care for mental health, as Singaporeans can receive subsidies of up to 80% for mental health services at public hospitals and polyclinics. We will continue to expand the capacity of mental health services in the public hospitals and polyclinics.
In the primary care setting, Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS), Pioneer Generation and Merdeka Generation cardholders are eligible for subsidies for mental health conditions – including depression, anxiety, bipolar and schizophrenia – at selected private CHAS General Practitioner (GP) clinics, under the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP). Individuals may also tap on MediSave to pay for their CDMP treatments at these GP clinics. Today, over 450 GPs in GP clinics are trained to support persons with mental health needs under the Mental Health GP Partnership Programme. We target to make mental health services available at 1,350 Healthier SG GP clinics by 2030.
