The Government has put in place several measures to ensure that CareShield Life premiums remain affordable. In particular, the Government will provide means-tested premium subsidies, Additional Premium Support and other support measures to ensure that premiums remain affordable. This includes the transitional subsidies for the future cohorts joining the new scheme.

We also understand that it may be more challenging to meet living expenses during the current COVID-19 pandemic. There are additional support measures available to support lower- and middle-income families, such as the Temporary Relief Fund and COVID-19 Support Grant.
