Hi DiymummyI bought AIA hospitalisation plan and accident plan for my son.
Ohoh...so we need to apply for our baby when the baby born ?Medishield is for hospital use (deduct from medisave de, rider by cash) .... if the baby goes into hospital and post hospital visit can claim from medishield...
we adults also have medishield by default by CPF, but it only cover very very very little....
you can only buy when bb is 14 days old. bought from AIA. $900 is only the savings. accident plan was bout 100++/year. Healthshield is paid by hubby's medisave, about $200 annually i think..Hi Shiyi: Which insurans company you bought from? Annually $900 is include as well the saving & health plan?
medishield plan??? hmmm....not really understand for that, can the mummies advice for that?
yes yes, all by default have this medishield plan by CPF appointed insurer ....Hi All,
We are all covered by medi-shield (I think), which deducts the premium from our medisave. The pvt insurers like AIA, Prudential, Income, AXA and GE has their own 'upgraded' shield plans. Again, the premium can be deducted from your medisave.
All these shield plans, there's a deductible, which you'll need to fork out some cash component.
To cover that, some of these pvt insurers also have a rider which covers that deductible, but you need to pay its premium in cash.
Good to read up a little more on this on your own first, cos once you meet up with an agent, abit hard to screen through their smoke
Yeah, so urs $111 / year only cover for your boy hospitalize and not childhood illness rtye.yes yes, all by default have this medishield plan by CPF appointed insurer ....
i "upgraded" the plan and have a rider which covers the cash component and extra cost if i have to send my boy to a private or A1/B2class govt hospital... paid a premium of $111 every yr...
really have to read up more first... coz different insurance company have different plan, some do not cover childhood illness... which is rather important to me...
