Depending on the type of hospital, the process will be different and applicable after you have been diagnosed. Download and print the relevant Doctor's Statement document (as above) and bring it along with you to the hospital. The Doctor Statement is to be completed by the doctor who diagnosed you. You will be required to pay a fee for the application.
For restructured hospital (public hospital), apply through the hospital's Medical Report Office (MRO). This may take approximately 6-8 weeks.
For private hospital, pass the doctor's statement to your attending doctor to complete during your visit.
