SINGAPORE - Annual withdrawal limits for the Flexi-MediSave scheme, which aims to help seniors pay less for healthcare out of pocket, will be raised from $200 to $300 starting June 1, 2021.
This will support elderly patients seeking outpatient treatment, said Senior Minister of State for Health Koh Poh Koon at the debate on his ministry s budget.
Introduced in 2015, the scheme allows patients aged 60 and above to tap their own or their spouse s Medisave funds to pay for outpatient expenses at polyclinics, specialist outpatient clinics and GP clinics under the Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS).
In recent years, some members of the public have called for an increase in the withdrawal limits, saying the current amount is insufficient for seniors with chronic conditions that require multiple treatments.
About 500 direct telemedicine service providers declared to meet MOH s measures, added to listing channelnewsasia.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from channelnewsasia.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
1. MediSave limits for hospitalisation & surgery
Sorry, but you cannot use your MediSave to pay for that GP visit you made in order to get an MC. If you get hospitalised or have to undergo day surgery, however, you will be able to use MediSave to pay.
Two types of MediSave limits apply: (a) daily hospital limits (which only apply to hospital charges excluding surgery) and (b) surgical limits (only apply to surgery). So if you get hospitalised and undergo surgery, you can claim up to two different limits.
