I am an existing ElderShield/ElderShield Supplement policyholder. Do I have to join CareShield Life?

Singapore Citizen and Permanent Resident born between 1970 and 1979, who were covered under the ElderShield 400 scheme and did not develop severe disability were auto-enrolled to CareShield Life from 1 December 2021. You will not be able to opt out of CareShield Life as the deadline to opt out was 31 December 2023. 

Those who were not auto-enrolled can choose to join CareShield Life.
 
The Government will provide means-tested premium subsidies and Additional Premium Support to those who join CareShield Life, to ensure that no one who joins the scheme loses coverage due to financial difficulties.
 
You may refer to the types of premium support available for more information. For information on your personalised premiums and premium support, you may access the CareShield Life Premium Checker e-Service with your Singpass.
