What does it mean to appoint agents to recover outstanding MediShield Life premiums?
The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) will take enforcement actions against members with outstanding MediShield Life premiums. This may include appointing agents like employers, banks or tenants in member's properties to recover the outstanding premiums.
IRAS will inform members and their agents of the appointment in writing. The appointed agents will pay the premiums to the MediShield Life Fund on behalf of the member.
