The government expects to spend 405 million patacas on its annual medical subsidy programme – informally known as medical vouchers – this year, Executive Council (ExCo) spokesman Leong Heng Teng said late last week.

Leong announced details of a draft by-law (administrative regulation) regulating the 2017 medical subsidy programme during a press conference at Government Headquarters on Friday.

Each permanent resident will be entitled to medical vouchers worth 600 patacas this year, unchanged from last year. The beneficiaries will have to use their 2017 vouchers by August 31 next year, according to an ExCo statement on Friday.
