Your eligibility for MediShield Life Premium Subsidies is subject to your household monthly income per person, Annual Value (AV) of residence, multiple property ownership and citizenship. All Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents are generally means-tested once a year, and will continue to receive MediShield Life Premium Subsidies as long as one continues to meet the eligibility criteria. Premium Subsidies are provided to help the lower- to middle-income households with their MediShield Life premiums. Pioneer Generation subsidies and Merdeka Generation subsidies are applicable for life, regardless of income or place of residence.
