Notes:
1 MediShield Life replaced MediShield from 1 Nov 2015. All Singapore Residents are automatically covered
under MediShield Life. Prior to 2015, figures refer to MediShield Scheme
2 In the past years, applications for all ILTC services were classified together as a category. For FY12, Medifund
applications for ILTC services were further differentiated into three types of services - i) Non-Residential Services
(by attendances), ii) Intermediate Term Residential Services (by admissions), iii) Long Term Residential Services (by
bed months) - to better reflect the different nature of the services. The number of ILTC Medifund and Medifund Silver
applications in FY12 is a summation of these services in their respective units. Hence FY12 ILTC figures onwards are not
comparable with preceding years.
