The Teachers’ Medical Services Provider, Minet, has urged all teachers to register for the Chronic Disease Management Program that covers both the teachers and their dependants. To benefit from the program, a teacher is required to register at the Minet Chronic Disease Management Program Portal.
All that is required is the teacher’s TSC and Phone Numbers.
Chronic disease refers to a medical condition that continues or persists and will require ongoing medical attention and management over an extended period of time.
Examples of such conditions include but not limited to:

The benefits of registering on the Chronic Disease Management program include:
