What is the MediShield Life deductible?
The deductible is the fixed amount payable by the insured each policy year before any payout from MediShield Life. The deductible is payable only once every policy year. The deductible paid can be accumulated if there is more than 1 claim in the policy year. The deductible ranges from $1,500 to $4,500 of the claimable amount depending on age and ward class as shown in the table below.
