The first phase of the increase in inpatient deductible, together with the refresh of existing MediShield Life claim limits, will take effect on 1 Apr 2025. These revised parameters will apply for all admissions on or after 1 Apr 2025.
Any deductible that you have paid during your policy year prior to 1 Apr 2025 will be counted towards the new deductible.
Assuming the same policy year, this means that if you have paid $1,500 in deductible before 1 Apr 2025, it would continue to count towards the new deductible that you have to pay for your admission on or after 1 Apr 2025.
