As announced by PM during the 2013 National Day Rally, MOH will introduce MediShield Life to provide lifetime coverage for all Singapore residents. The intent of MediShield Life is to provide better coverage for large subsidised bills and provide assurance that all Singaporeans will be covered for life for subsidised bills, regardless of how their life and health circumstances change over time. To ensure that premiums for MediShield Life remain affordable, even as benefits are enhanced and payouts rise, additional Government support including for the less well-off will be provided. MOH will also review how premiums can be better spread over one's lifetime, to help moderate premium increases after retirement. MOH will hold a public consultation in the fourth quarter of 2013 to seek feedback on the proposed major shifts for MediShield Life. If you would like to share your feedback in the meantime, please visit the REACH NDR page or write to MOH_QSM@moh.gov.sg For more information on MediShield Life, please visit www.medishieldlife.sg. |
