News & Reviews:   MySejahtera app

The Ministry of Health (MOH) today announced that beginning today (20 March 2023), you can book a government dental clinic appointment slot via the MySejahtera app. Implemented in phases, the appointment system would be available at all government dental clinics in Melaka and Penang in phase 1.

In their continuing move to further expand the MySejahtera app, you may soon be able to schedule your dental health appointments at nearby Klinik Kesihatan Pergigian using said app. You can already schedule appointments for normal Klinik Kesihatan visits via the app.

Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin has announced that the MySejahtera app will be reactivated starting from today in order to better deal with monkeypox infections. He further elaborated that travellers coming from countries with reported monkeypox cases will be sent an alert on the app.

Recently, MySejahtera added a new Infectious Disease Tracker feature in version 1.1.9 of the app, whereby it detects hotspots near the user that has infectious disease cases. Now, the feature has been upgraded to provide even more data, this time to include cases of Tuberculosis (TB).

MySejahtera has urged Malaysians to immeditately update the app to its latest version so as to enable the new Infectious Disease Tracker feature. Currently in version 1.1.9, users can install or update the app via the Google Play Store, Apple App Store and HUAWEI AppGallery.

The Ministry of Health (MOH) has announced that MySejahtera check-ins will no longer be mandatory in order to enter premises or public areas. This latest Covid-19 SOP leniency will be in effect starting from 1 May 2022.

By now, you should have spotted a new 'Verified' status on your MySejahtera app account whenever entering a premise. This doesn't mean you're some sort of celebrity or influencer, as what social media accounts depict, but rather because your account is legitimate or not.

MySejahtera is probably the most used app right now on our mobile devices, everywhere we go and before entering a premise, we just gotta scan. However, using your phone at a petrol station is risky and it has been announced that there's actually no need to use the app before filling the petrol.
