MediShield Life protects Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents. MOH describes an Integrated Shield Plan as including MediShield Life and an additional private component.
An employer’s group medical plan should not be assumed to work like an IP. Ask the group insurer whether and how the policy coordinates claims, what documents it needs and how benefits are calculated.
Check the procedure for each employee’s circumstances. Avoid promising either duplicate reimbursement or a lower premium simply because MediShield Life is available.
