Will I receive the Participation Incentives of up to $4,000 as long as I apply to join by 31 December 2023?

Updated by MOH

It depends on whether you will be required to undergo a disability assessment as part of the underwriting process. 

If you are not required to undergo a disability assessment by the Agency for Integrated Care (AIC) and apply to join CareShield Life using our eService by 31 December 2023, you will be eligible for Participation Incentives of up to $4,000.

If you are required to undergo a disability assessment by AIC and attend your disability assessment after 31 December 2023, you will not be eligible for the Participation Incentives of up to $4,000 as your application will only be approved as per your disability assessment date. 

Therefore, you are encouraged to apply to join CareShield Life early if you are planning to do so.
