Inpatient and outpatient

The benefit category and the physical location are not always the same thing. A hospital can provide an outpatient consultation, while a medical schedule may also cover specified treatments outside an overnight admission.

The cited Singlife brochure separates hospital benefits from outpatient riders and also identifies particular outpatient treatments within its basic medical cover.

For HR instructions, name the treatment and the relevant benefit instead of saying that everything at a hospital uses the inpatient allowance. Check day surgery separately.
