The MediSave withdrawal limits are generally sufficient to cover bills incurred in B2 or C ward types in a public hospital. This restriction is necessary to prevent premature depletion of your MediSave, as your MediSave savings are to last through your lifetime. This is particularly important as elderly people may require more hospital stays and medical care than younger ones. If there is any part of the hospital bill that MediSave is unable to cover, you will need to pay in cash.
