For those with serious pre-existing conditions, why do they have to pay Additional Premiums for MediShield Life?

Updated by CPF
Those with serious pre-existing conditions pay a higher MediShield Life premium as a reflection of the higher risks they pose to the pool and to fund part of their coverage. The Government will support most of the cost of extending MediShield Life coverage to all Singapore Residents.
