No.Questions & Answers
1

Who are eligible for Employee MediCare?

Foreign workers holding S-Pass and Work Permit that are aged between 18 years old up to 64 years old. This plan excludes other pass holders and migrant domestic workers.

2

What is the maximum age of cover?

The cover of the worker will end under any of the following circumstances, whichever first occurs:

(a) when the worker ceases to be eligible, or
(b) when the worker ceases to be in Singapore, or
(c) when the worker has attained age 70 on the expiry of the period of insurance, or
(d) at the time of death of the worker

3

How does the 25% co-insurance work?

We will cover the first $15,000 of the eligible hospital bill. For eligible claim amounts above $15,000, the employer will bear 25% co-insurance, while we will pay the remaining 75%.

The maximum amount payable is subject to the sum insured stated in the policy schedule. For clarity, the first $15,000 limit applies on a per policy year basis.

Waiver of co-insurance is available. Please refer to the premium tables for further details.
