Why is the Government auto-enrolling ElderShield 400 insureds who are born between 1970 to 1979 to CareShield Life?
It was to make it more convenient for Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents to join CareShield Life. If you were auto-enrolled and do not wish to join the scheme, you can opt out by accessing the Opt-out of CareShield Life e-Service and log in using Singpass to complete the application by 31 December 2023.
