Apart from the MediShield scheme, which the Central Provident Fund Board runs, you can also choose from amongst other Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans offered by private insurers.

Since 1 July 2005, each of these Medisave-approved plans have been integrated with MediShield to form a single integrated plan. These Integrated Shield Plans provide you with additional benefits and coverage when you opt for Class A and B1 wards in the restructured hospitals, or private hospitalisation.

Policyholders on the Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans retain the benefits of MediShield membership, while their private insurer will service all their needs. In other words, policyholders pay their premium, and submit claims directly to their private insurer. Their private insurer will then sort out all arrangements with MediShield.

Medisave can also be used to pay for premiums of these private Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans, subject to a withdrawal limit of $800 per policy, per year. For policyholders aged 81 and above, the withdrawal limit is $1,150 per policy, per year.

Medisave-approved Integrated Shield plans include:

• NTUC Enhanced IncomeShield
• AIA HealthShield Gold Max
• Aviva MyShield
• Great Eastern SupremeHealth
• Prudential PruShield
