Your questions answered
1. What is MediShield Life?
MediShield Life is a compulsory basic health insurance plan, administered by the Central Provident Fund (CPF) Board, that provides Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents with universal and lifelong protection against large hospital bills and selected costly outpatient treatments, such as dialysis and chemotherapy for cancer, regardless of age or health condition.
MediShield Life is sized for subsidised Class B2/C bills in public hospitals and pegged at B2/C-type wards. Hence if you choose to stay in a higher hospital ward class such as A/B1-type ward or in a private hospital, MediShield Life payout will cover only a proportion of your bill and you would need to draw on your MediSave funds and/or cash to pay the balance.
2. What is GREAT SupremeHealth?
GREAT SupremeHealth is an Integrated Shield Plan that provides enhanced coverage and additional benefits beyond those provided by MediShield Life.
GREAT SupremeHealth is made up of 2 components:
- MediShield Life portion managed by the Central Provident Fund (CPF) Board, and
- An additional private insurance coverage provided by The Great Eastern Life Assurance Company Limited.
By purchasing GREAT SupremeHealth, you will enjoy the combined coverage of MediShield Life and GREAT SupremeHealth. Your GREAT SupremeHealth premium includes both the MediShield Life premium and the additional private insurance coverage premium.
3. Do I still need to buy GREAT SupremeHealth if I am already covered under MediShield Life or company’s medical insurance?
You can consider getting GREAT SupremeHealth to complement your MediShield Life coverage or company’s medical insurance if you prefer higher benefit limits and hospital ward class.
Your company’s medical insurance coverage might cease too when you leave your job but with GREAT SupremeHealth, you will be covered for a lifetime.
4. When is an appropriate time to buy GREAT SupremeHealth?
It will always be useful to get coverage as early as possible. The younger you are, the more likely you are to be in good health and able to buy GREAT SupremeHealth without exclusions on any pre-existing medical conditions.
Even with a healthy lifestyle, unexpected events such as an accident that leads to a hospital stay may deplete your savings. Thus, getting GREAT SupremeHealth would help to cover your medical bills to protect your hard-earned savings.
5. Which GREAT SupremeHealth plan should I consider purchasing?
You should consider your medical care preferences before making a plan purchase, that includes ward preferences, ability to choose your preferred doctors or hospitals and the affordability of premiums over the longer-term. Please speak to our Financial Representative who will be able to share more about your options.
6. Can MediSave funds be used to pay for GREAT SupremeHealth?
GREAT SupremeHealth is a MediSave-approved Integrated Shield plan and premiums are payable using MediSave funds up to the Additional Withdrawal Limits based on age. Any premium excess would need to be paid in cash. You may refer to the Ministry of Health of Singapore’s website for the prevailing MediSave Additional Withdrawal Limits.
7. MediShield Life covers me regardless of my health conditions, will GREAT SupremeHealth cover my pre-existing conditions too?
Universal healthcare coverage provided by MediShield Life protects Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents for life, regardless of pre-existing conditions. Such costs of covering pre-existing conditions are shared with the community with the Government supporting the cost of extending MediShield Life coverage to all Singapore Residents.
Unlike MediShield Life, Integrated Shield Plans such as GREAT SupremeHealth do not provide coverage for pre-existing conditions. Hence, these pre-existing conditions will continue to be excluded from the additional private insurance coverage portion under your GREAT SupremeHealth plan.
GREAT TotalCare 2 also provides additional benefits that are not included under GREAT SupremeHealth such as coverage for Outpatient Cancer Drug Treatment not on the Cancer Drug List, Emergency Accidental Outpatient Treatment and recovery benefits such as Post-Stroke Outpatient Care Support and Additional Outpatient Cancer Support.
^GREAT TotalCare 2 Prime does not cover co-insurance when treatment is provided by a non-Panel Provider or in a non-Partnering Medical Institution.
*only applicable to GREAT TotalCare 2 Prime for treatment at Partnering Medical Institutions when treated by Panel Providers.
