You may have come across an online article featuring Mr Sim Kay Chuan who suffers from a heart condition.

 

Mr Sim has applied to withdraw his CPF under medical grounds. His own doctor made 2 separate assessments, and certified that he is not unfit for employment and is suited for jobs that do not require physical exertion. In addition, CPFB engaged two other doctors to assess his condition. Both shared the same assessment as Mr Sim’s own doctor that his medical condition did not meet the criteria for withdrawal on medical grounds.

 

National Heart Centre Singapore will reach out to Mr Sim regarding his outstanding bills, and application for financial assistance if needed. We are also aware that local community partners are assisting him.

 

We will continue to work with relevant agencies to assist Mr Sim.
