Is it possible?
Yes, very!
Most of the UPT (Urine Pregnancy Test) in Government Hospital / Clinic can be less sensitive.
Not sure what's their sensitivity level is BUT, through personal experience, at a beta HCG (blood) of 70 miu/ml, the Government Hospital's UPT came back "negative", several times.
Even when my beta HCG was at 180+ miu/ml , UPT was first reported as negative, then 'faint positive'.
HCG in theory will double every two days, so, if you are getting a faint positive on your UPT at home, give it a couple of days and test again.
Also, sometimes "chemical pregnancy" happens.
Or in a simpler term, 'lil bean did not manage to stick on.
So, if you are planning to test early (days before your period is due), you must remember the possibility of "chemical pregnancy". It can be emotionally devastating.

This pregnancy test SUCKS!
I bought this at Watson. I hated it so much that I even scanned it!
(So that I can warn others)
I complained to WATSON via email but never received any reply.
My UPT at the doctor was clearly positive.
YET, THIS test gave me negative's' - twice.

This test is pretty cool but expensive.
Good for confirmation.
No lines. Just words and numbers!
It has an internal battery that will run out after a day or so,quick must take photo!
I remember getting "Pregnant 1-2" back in Jun-11
Then, another "Pregnant 1-2" in Jul-11
Unfortunately one was chemical and the other ended in a miscarriage.
Pros : These digital tests are so cool! Good for confirmation. Not confusing!
Cons : $$$$
Review :- Guardian Pharmacy Pregnancy Test - Malaysia
Brand : Guardian Pharmacy Pregnancy Test Strips (similar to mid-stream BUT NOT!)
(Comes in a 'single' and 'twin' pack)
Known Sensitivity :- 25miu/ml
Cost : On average RM 6.50 per pc
Total Spent :- RM 65.00 for 10 tests or so.
Review :-
Now that I've tried several pregnancy tests. This to me is a big width test strip, held together by a plastic holder so that we can pee directly on it!
I bought this "Guardian Pharmacy Test Strip" as it was the most affordable on the shelf!
Rests were (and still are) pretty expensive!
Tried in Jun-2011, when I first suspected pregnancy.
6 days before my expected period - Faint lines appeared near to the 10 minutes mark.
Finally confirmed 'both times' on a Clearblue Digital (with conception indicator).
Pros : These test strips are easily available at Guardian Pharmacy. Good to test if you are already 'late' for your period but not before. Definitely not an Early Pregnancy Test!
Cons : It says its sensitivity level is 25miu/ml but I doubt so, especially with the faint confusing lines.
