a) Medisave
b) MediShield
Medisave
Medisave Scheme is a national healthcare savings scheme designed to help members pay hospitalisation expenses incurred in Class B2/C wards in restructured hospitals. Medisave savings can also be used to pay for certain outpatient treatments like chemotherapy, radiotherapy and dialysis. You can use Medisave savings to pay for your own or your immediate family members’1 hospitalisation expenses, day surgery and selected outpatient treatments.
1Immediate family members refer to spouse, children, parents and grandparents. Grandparents must be Singapore citizens or permanent residents.
Your Coverage Under Medisave
Medisave savings can be used for the following hospital charges:
  • Daily ward charges
  • Doctor’s fees
  • Surgical operations including the use of operating theatres; and
  • In-patient charges for medical treatment, investigations, medicines, rehabilitation services, medical supplies, implants and prostheses introduced during surgery
Medisave also covers the following hospitalisation and other approved expenses:
  • $450 per day for daily hospital charges which includes a maximum of $50 for doctor's daily attendance fees.
  • A fixed limit per table of surgical operation. Click here for more information.
  • Approved day surgeries, up to $300 per day for daily hospital charges including a maximum of $30 for the doctor's daily attendance fees, as well as a fixed limit per table of surgical operation.
  • Psychiatric treatment, up to $150 per day for the daily hospital charges including a maximum of $50 for the doctor's daily attendance fees, subject to a maximum of $5,000 a year.
  • Approved community hospitals, up to $150 per day for the daily hospital charges before 1 June 2010 or $250 per day for daily hospital charges for admission on or after 1 June 2010, including a maximum of $30 for the doctor's daily attendance fees, subject to a maximum of $3,500 a year before 1 June 2010 or $5,000 a year for admission on or after 1 June 2010.
  • Approved convalescent hospitals, up to $50 a day for the daily hospital charges, including a maximum of $30 for the doctor's daily attendance fees, subject to a maximum of $3,000 a year.
  • Approved hospices, up to $160 per day for the daily hospital charges, including a maximum of $30 for the doctor's daily attendance fees.
  • Day rehabilitation at Day Rehabilitation Centres, up to $20 per day before 1 June 2010 or $25 per day on or after 1 June 2010, subject to a maximum of $1,500 a year.
Your Medisave savings can be used to pay for the following outpatient treatments, subject to the withdrawal limit. Click here for the type of outpatient treatment and its Medisave withdrawal limit.
The Medisave withdrawal limits are generally sufficient to pay the charges incurred by a patient staying in a Class B2/C ward in a restructured hospital. However, should you or your dependants decide to stay in higher class wards or seek treatment from private hospitals, you or your dependants may have to pay part of the bill in cash. It is therefore important to choose a ward or medical service that you can afford.
Making A Claim Under Medisave
Medisave savings can be claimed for hospitalisation, day surgeries and outpatient treatment expenses incurred in medical institutions participating in the Medisave scheme.
For a hospitalisation claim, the patient must have stayed in the hospital for at least 8 hours (unless the patient is admitted for day surgery) or died within 8 hours of being hospitalised.
Click here for a complete list of hospitals and medical institutions participating in the Medisave scheme.
The maximum amount of Medisave savings that a member can claim for each hospitalisation, day surgery or outpatient treatment is subject to the Medisave withdrawal limits. Multiple Medisave Accounts can be used to co-pay the hospital bill. However, the same Medisave withdrawal limits will still apply. This means that the Medisave withdrawal limits will not increase with the number of Medisave Account holders paying the bill. This restriction is meant to help members avoid over-using their Medisave savings, so that they have sufficient Medisave savings for their own future healthcare needs.
For a member who passed away on or after 1 July 2006 during his/her hospitalisation, he/she can use his/her Medisave savings to pay for the last inpatient hospital bill in full, without being subjected to the existing Medisave withdrawal limits. This is because the need to save for future healthcare needs is no longer relevant.
You or your dependants will have to inform the hospital of your intention to claim from Medisave. You or your dependants will need to sign the Medisave Authorisation Form (MAF), which is available from the hospital. The form will be submitted by the hospital after you or your dependants have been discharged.

If you did not sign the Medisave Authorisation Form (MAF) and pass away during your hospitalisation, your immediate family members (spouse, parents, or child who is 18 years and above) or committee of person could sign the MAF to use your Medisave savings to pay your last inpatient medical bill. If you do not have any immediate family members or committee of person to sign the MAF, a relative who has been taking care of you may also write in to the Ministry of Health through the hospital to seek approval for him/her to authorise the withdrawal of your Medisave savings to pay your last inpatient medical bill.


Upon discharge, you will be given a bill. The hospital will submit a claim from your Medisave account to the CPF Board. You will receive a Medisave Withdrawal Statement showing:
-
the amount deducted from your Medisave Account;
-
name of patient for whom you have paid for;
-
hospital to which patient is admitted; and the
-
latest balance in your Medisave Account.
The hospital will also inform you of the following:
-
the hospital bill incurred;
-
the amount deducted from your Medisave Account;
-
name of Medisave Account holder;
-
outstanding bill (if any) to be paid by the patient.

MediShield

MediShield is a basic medical insurance scheme designed to help pay part of the expenses arising from the insured’s hospitalisations and certain outpatient treatments for serious illnesses at approved medical institutions. MediShield works most effectively for hospitalisations at B2/C class level at restructured hospitals. It is meant to complement a member’s Medisave savings, which may otherwise be depleted in the event of prolonged illnesses that require longer-term medical treatment.
MediShield has deductible and co-insurance features. A "deductible" is the minimum claimable amount that you would need to pay when you make a MediShield claim - the deductible applies on the claimable amount rather than the incurred hospital bill. You only need to pay the deductible once in a policy year. You will also need to pay a portion of the claimable amount with the remaining paid by MediShield. This arrangement is called "co-insurance". You can use your own or your immediate family members’ Medisave savings to pay for the deductible and co-insurance.
Click here for more information on deductibles and co-insurance.
You need not pay any deductible for outpatient treatments. MediShield will pay 80% of the actual expenditure up to the claimable limit.
Your Coverage Under MediShield
From 1 July 2005, MediShield will pay more for large hospital bills at the Class B2/C level. Members who are insured under MediShield will enjoy higher claim benefits.
MediShield is suitable for those who wish to stay in subsidised wards, Class B2/C. The scheme has been designed to pay more for large hospital bills and the claim benefits are based on the charges at Class B2/C ward level.
You can still claim under MediShield for charges incurred at higher class wards.

However, the MediShield claim payment will only cover a small part of the hospital bill. As a result, you may end up withdrawing more Medisave (subject to withdrawal limits) and cash to settle your hospital bills.
For those who can afford private hospitals or Class B1/A ward facilities, you may wish to purchase Medisave-approved Integrated Shield Plan from the private insurers.
You should also consider the standard of healthcare you wish to have and your affordability when deciding on a medical insurance.
Click here for more information on benefits of MediShield and the assured amount.
Click here for examples of amount that can be claimed through MediShield.
Click here for a list of treatments and medical expenses that are not covered under MediShield.
Making A Claim Under MediShield
MediShield can be claimed for hospitalisation, day surgeries and certain outpatient treatment expenses incurred in medical institutions participating in the MediShield scheme. Similar to a Medisave claim, the patient must have stayed in the hospital for at least 8 hours to qualify for claims for hospitalisation expenses. The only exception is when the patient is admitted for day surgery.
Click here for a complete list of hospitals and medical institutions participating in the MediShield scheme.
You need to inform the hospital of your intention to claim MediShield. You are not required to sign any form. The hospital will submit a MediShield claim on your behalf after you or your dependants have been discharged. If you are also claiming from Medisave, the hospital will submit both claims together to the CPF Board. It will take about 7 working days to process normal cases. A longer time will be required for cases where additional medical information is required for claim assessment.

Medisave-approved Insurance
Medisave-approved Integrated Insurance Plans
Apart from the MediShield scheme, which the Central Provident Fund Board runs, you can also choose from amongst other Medisave-approved Integrated Shield Plans offered by private insurers.
Since 1 July 2005, each of these Medisave-approved plans have been integrated with basic MediShield to form a single integrated plan. These Integrated Shield Plans provide you with additional benefits and coverage when you opt for Class A and B1 wards in public hospitals, or private hospitalisation.
Policyholders on the Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans retain the benefits and coverage of the basic MediShield tier, while enjoying enhanced coverage provided by their private insurers. Premiums are paid directly to the private insurers who will service all the policyholder’s needs. Similarly, private insurers will service all claims and sort out all back-end arrangements with CPF Board to include any payouts from MediShield.
Medisave can also be used to pay for premiums of these private Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans. The Medisave withdrawal limits for Integrated Shield plan are:
  • $800 per policy, per year, for those aged 75 and below next birthday;
  • $1,000 per policy, per year, for those aged 76 to 80 next birthday; and
  • $1,200 per policy, per year, for those aged 81 and above next birthday.
Medisave-approved Integrated Shield Plans include:
Related Info:
If you had a Medisave-approved plan with a private insurer before 1 July 2005, you will be transited to the new Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans over a 2 year period by your private insurer. After the 2-year transition period is over, Medisave cannot be used to pay for the premiums of the old plans as they are not integrated with MediShield.
Service Indicators
(I) Claims return rate

The following claims return rate table shows how long it takes each insurer to process claims with positive payouts.
The phrase, cumulative claims return rate, refers to the percentage of claims processed by the insurer within one week, two weeks and one month. Note that the fifth column shows the median number of days it takes each insurer to process claims.
Cumulative Claims Return RateMedian Claims Return Rate (days)
<= 1 week<= 2 weeks<= 4 weeks
AIA91%93%95%0
AVIVA85%89%94%1
Great Eastern91%93%94%0
NTUC Income94%95%97%0
Prudential94%96%99%0
(1 Jan 2013 to 31 Mar 2013)
Note (1): The number of days insurers take to process claims includes the time it takes to obtain medical records from claimants or medical institutions.
(II) Letter of guarantee and medical records costs
When you are hospitalised, if your hospital can obtain a letter of guarantee from your insurer, you can reduce the amount of your upfront payment to the hospital. A letter of guarantee is an assurance of payment offered by insurers to hospitals, on behalf of a patient, for the portion of the hospital bill covered by insurance.
To process claims, insurers may require your medical records. Either you as a claimant, or your insurer, can request medical records from medical institutions. This request however, usually comes at a cost from $75 to $250. All insurers currently absorb the cost of obtaining medical records.

AvivaYesYes
Great EasternYesYes
NTUC IncomeYesYes

**Provided to selected public hospitals and institutions - AH, CGH, NUH, SGH, TTSH and KTPH. Please check with the insurer for more information.
(As of July 2012)
Note (1): Insurers who absorb the cost of obtaining medical records, do so in more than 90% of cases. There might still exist situations where the claimant is requested to pay for medical records.


Questions to ask when getting health insurance in Singapore
There are many issues to consider when taking out medical insurance and, thankfully, Singapore health insurance system does not overburden you with more complexities. However, you need to have the correct knowledge about what is available to you, how much it costs, how it relates to your medical condition and how a health insurance policy can help you in times of need.
The following are among the pertinent questions you should ask before and during your application process.

In what way will I be covered with my health insurance?

Health insurance can cover anything from casual visits to the clinic for minor ailments to medical emergencies that require major surgery or long-term illnesses. In Singapore, insurance policies cover the following broad categories.
  • Hospitalization insurance – pays hospital medical expenses incurred as a result of an accident or illness.
  • Critical illness insurance – this is during major illnesses such as cancer and heart attacks and helps to pay for treatment and other medical-related expenses.
  • Disability income insurance – if you are unable to work because of a disability, this helps you receive an income.
  • Long-term care insurance – these schemes provides assistance in paying for nursing or home care if you are too weak to look after yourself.
  • Medical expense insurance – this covers medical expenses for minor conditions and ailments that require out-patient visits to your doctor or clinic.
  • Hospital cash insurance – this type allows you to receive money while you are in hospital and losing income as a result.
