Pro-ration

 

Pro-ration of Class A/B1 and Private Hospital Bills

Bills for higher class wards (e.g. Class A, Class B1 and private hospitals) are pro-rated to their equivalent Class B2 bill size based on the pro-ration factors in the table below.

 

Pro-ration of Bills for Singapore Permanent Residents and Non-Singaporeans

For Singapore Permanent Residents (SPRs) and non-Singaporeans, the pro-ration factor due to citizenship status will be applied to the charges incurred by you before the MediShield Life claim is computed. This is to equalize the MediShield Life payout for Singaporeans and non-Singaporeans.

 

The percentage to be applied to your hospital bill is as such:


Ward Class
Percentage of charges incurred used to calculate MediShield Life Claim
Singaporean SPR Foreigners
C (Public Hospital) 100% 44% 20%
B2 (Public Hospital) 100% 58% 35%
B2+ (Public Hospital) 70% 47% 35%
B1 (Public Hospital) 43% 38% 35%

Deductible

 

A Deductible is the amount you would need to pay for claim(s) made in a policy year, before there is a payout from MediShield Life. You only need to pay the full Deductible once in a policy year.

 

However, the Deductible is waived if your claim is for outpatient treatments.

Deductible (Per Policy Year) As of age next birthday
Ward Classes For ages 80 and below For ages 81 and above
Class C1 $1,500 $2,000
Class B2 & Above $2,000 $3,000

1 Community Hospital, Inpatient Palliative Care Service, Short Stay Wards and Continuation of Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant for Multiple Myeloma will follow the deductible for Class C for patients in subsidized wards, and the deductible for Class B2 and above for patients in non-subsidised wards.
