What if I have insufficient MediSave balances for my healthcare and long-term care expenses?
moh
The minimum MediSave Account balance of $5,000 under MediSave Care is carefully set to help individuals maintain some savings to pay for for their healthcare bills.
If you have depleted your MediSave account, you may tap on your spouse's MediSave for long-term care withdrawals, and your family members' MediSave for your other healthcare treatments.
You may also apply for other forms of assistance such as means-tested Government assistance schemes (ElderFund, Home Caregiving Grant) to meet your long-term care costs needs. If you are still unable to pay for your care even after Government subsidies and other means of support, there are other forms of assistance such as MediFund and ComCare.
