Tested Positive on Arrival?
Re: Tested Positive on Arrival?
That either means covid is rife in their own country, they’re getting it in transit or whilst at the airport.PSD-Kiwi wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 10:50 amIn the past few weeks there has been a shitload of Foreigners reporting testing positive on arrival, many of which were tourists who have only come here for a short holiday....not a great idea to risk travelling to Cambodia for a short holiday at the moment.Raggepepsi57 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 5:31 am Wonder how many westerners and other travellers/tourists that have tested positive at the airport and are kept at the "covid hospitals"? I guess that some of the imported cases maybe are cambodians returning home
Either way it’s one step forwards two back.
People of the world, spice up your life.

@PSD-Kiwi
What happens if you take a PCR test to leave Cambodia that shows up positive with Omicron? Do you still get arrested and spend a week in a prison? (At your own expense)

Re: Tested Positive on Arrival?
Assessed on a case-by-case basis, the majority are permitted to self-quarantine at home if they have a suitable residence, if staying in a hotel then generally they are sent to CENAT. I was contacted by a bloke who tested POS on his pre-flight PCR test the other day, after he was contacted by the MOH, they then called the Hotel Management, the hotel then proceeded to kick them out immediately onto the street to wait for the ambulance.
EDIT: Sorry...I missed the Omicron part...self-quarantine for those who test positive for the Omicron variant is not permitted, all Omicron positive cases are sent to a dedicated hospital/quarantine facility, or they can opt for Kravan or Intercare/Olympia Medical Centre, not confirmed yet whether RPP is approved for Omicron cases.

My understanding is that the following private hospitals are authorized by the govt to treat covid:Timmy69 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 12:44 pmWhat should someone do it they live in Cambodia are having COVID type symptoms and want to be treated and have insurance or cash to pay?PSD-Kiwi wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 12:15 pmAssessed on a case-by-case basis, the majority are permitted to self-quarantine at home if they have a suitable residence, if staying in a hotel then generally they are sent to CENAT.

Central
Royal Phnom Penh
Kravan Covid Care Center
Visalsok Polyclinic
Chbar Ampov Polyclinic
I made a note of this from another thread but @PSD-Kiwi can confirm I think.
Re: Tested Positive on Arrival?
At this stage only Kravan Covid Care Centre and Intercare/Olympia Medical Centre are confirmed as approved for private hospitalisation/quarantine of those with Omicron variant, I am currently waiting further info from an MoH liaison.Clutch Cargo wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 1:10 pm Central

Re: Tested Positive on Arrival?
Update reference opting to go to Kravan if POS on arrival....I have confirmed with Kravan Covid Care Centre that passengers who test positive on arrival can go straight to the Kravan Covid Care Centre, they are not required to go to the Govt Hospital/Quarantine facility first.
They need to liaise directly with Kravan via phone/WhatsApp and the MoH Doctor at the airport as soon as they are informed of the positive test result, Kravan will then arrange transportation.
"Patients" are then required to pay the expenses up front to Kravan, and IF their insurance covers the stay, claim back.

Re: Tested Positive on Arrival?
Thanks for that. Yeah it is getting confusing. The topic was about where to go if test POS on arrival and then went a bit off topic as to where should someone already here go for covid treatment.. And now there's the issue of whether you have Omicron or presumably Delta?PSD-Kiwi wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 1:29 pmAt this stage only Kravan Covid Care Centre and Intercare/Olympia Medical Centre are confirmed as approved for private hospitalisation/quarantine of those with Omicron variant, I am currently waiting further info from an MoH liaison.Clutch Cargo wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 1:10 pm Central

As far as I knew, these private hospitals were previously approved for general covid treatment:
Central
Royal Phnom Penh
Visalsok Polyclinic
Chbar Ampov Polyclinic
Now, with Omicron there's these:
Kravan Covid Care Centre
Intercare/Olympia Medical Centre
