If I used cash, MediSave and MediShield Life for my medical bill, is there a specific order in which my employer or insurer should perform the reimbursement?

Question

Accepted Answer

Subject to contractual obligations, your employer or insurer should reimburse you in the following order:

Step 1: Cash reimbursement

Reimburse the amount paid in cash directly to you.

Step 2: MediSave reimbursement

If MediSave was used for the medical bill, reimburse the amount utilised from the payer's or your MediSave Account directly to CPF Board.

Step 3: MediShield Life / Integrated Shield Plan reimbursement

If MediShield Life was used for the medical bill, reimburse the amount utilised directly to CPF Board. If a MediSave-approved Integrated Shield Plan was used, reimburse the amount utilised directly to the Shield plan insurer.

This order minimises your cash outlay and restores the balance in the payer’s or your MediSave Account.
