FYI, PES is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PULHHEEMS.
1) Go to Public Hospital / Private Specialist.
Note: You will be classified as a subsidised patient if your first visit is via:
2) Consult specialist, and
do whatever medical check ups required. E.g. physical
exam, blood test, x-ray, CT scan, MRI scan.
3) Specialist gave a finalised clinical diagnosis.
4) Get the specialist to write you a
memo which is to be given to
SAF MO. Those who can and are willing to spend some
more money can get him/her to write you a specialist report,
which is more precise and detailed.
Note: For not to
waste time and money, please be more direct yet humble. Request the
specialist to write about reviewing of PES and medical
board / anything specific such as any
excuses to your conditions.
5) Book an
medical review appointment using the
eHealth module @
ns.sg (for NSman
Reservists).
Just go down to your camp medical centre
(for NSFs).
Call CMPB @ 6373 1340 to request another
PES review (for Pre-Enlistees after CMPB
Checkup).
6) Make a trip down to the respective unit camp medical centre. Give the MO whatever supporting documents you have in hand. E.g. Specialist memo/report (most usually the case and highly recommended), x-ray films, CT/MRI scan report, blood investigation lab report... etc.
7) MO will decide whether you are deemed eligible for KIV downgrade, according to the criterias set in the "PES Bible" directive. E.g. Diagnosis, Extent of Diagnosis, Degree of Diagnosis/Injury/Illness/Disease...etc.
8) If deemed so, you will sign an acknowledgement notice of Medical Board, whereby your case statement is prepared for review discussion at the monthly medical board meet (usually at the Formation/Division HQ) with another NSF CPT MO and the Chairman (SAF Regular Medical Doctor of MAJOR rank or above). Your Medical Board result will be post mailed to you by your respective NSHRC (Formation NS Hub).
Time and time again, the questions for Medical Review (Downgrade) is repetitive. Therefore, this serves as a general SOP for Medical Board.
Extract from www.mindef.gov.sg/nsmen:
It is crucial that you update your NS
HRCs if you develop a new medical condition or if an existing
medical condition has worsened, which may affect your ICT
performance. This is so that arrangements will be made for you to
attend a medical review at the SAF medical centre to assess your
fitness condition for NS.
You MUST bring along all your investigation results and memorandums from
your external physician or specialist during your medical review.
You may be given a medical certificate for ICT deferment, be
scheduled for a medical board to downgrade you if your medical
condition is significant, or be referred to a restructured hospital
for further examination depending on the outcome of your medical
review.
If your medical condition is deemed suited for ICT participation by
the medical officer, you will then be allowed to attend
ICT.

Hi all,
I'm currently diagnosed with major depressive disorder and my superiors know of it, but it seems like they are not taking it seriously.
They've been reluctant in letting me see the MO personally. What should I do?
On a side note, they have been dragging my buddy's medical review for 2 weeks already.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Sirs and all,
I have been diagnosed with allergic rhinitis, and I have been referred by the SAF MO to a ENT specialist.
During my blood iGE allergy test, the results revealed that I have a Class 5 allergy to Dermatophagoides Pteronyssinus d1, class 4 allergy to Dermatophagoides Farinae d2, Class 3 allergy to Mold Screen 1 mp1, as well as a Class 2 allergy to Cockroach i6.
I understand that perpetually everyone have some sort of allergy towards dust mites, however, both Class 4 and 5 are classified as 'Very High' allergy and it is indeed a cause for concern (at least for me...).
Currently, I am fortunate enough to be posted as a clerk in HQ, where I do not have to partake in intense physical activities such as route marches, outfields etc. However, I am scheduled for PES A BMT recourse soon, and I honestly do not see myself passing the FFI with this condition as I am constantly plagued with flu symptoms. I am currently on nasal spray (twice/day) as well as sinus rinse bottle (thrice/day).
I am currently scheduled for another MA at the end of this month, where I will try and obtain the necessary medical documents.
With that said, can anyone kindly advise regarding the PES status of my current condition, as well as the statuses I may get? Would like a heads up, and know what I should expect from my visit with my MO :)
Cheers!
P/S: By the way, is it true that not all medication are covered under 11B? I was informed by the hospital that I have to pay for my sinus rinse bottle. Not that it was expensive, but I was under the belief that all medication/costs are covered for, especially so when I was referred by the SAF MO.

2) My brother in final year of poly, was enlisted into the ite batch. Tbere were only 3-4 poly guys in the whole coy. Any reasons to explain his situation? He has a very hard time bonding with the people there (no offence) thus, if possible tho highly unlikely, are there any instances where saf may have posted one wrongly or to change coy?
Some additional info, he passed his napfa, is a pes b1l1 and expecting to graduate in May 2017. Feel free to ask other info to assess his situation.
