What will happen to my MediShield Life or Integrated Shield Plan cover when I renounce my Singapore Citizenship or Permanent Resident status?
Today, all Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents are covered by MediShield Life.
Should you renounce your citizenship or permanent resident status and are only insured under MediShield Life, you will lose MediShield Life cover.
If you are insured under an Integrated Shield Plan (IP), you will either no longer have a MediShield Life component (which may include coverage of any pre-existing conditions) in your IP or have your IP terminated. Please inform your private insurer if you have plans to renounce your citizenship or permanent resident status so that your insurer can advise you on the available coverage options. If you wish to terminate your IP, you will also need to notify your private insurer in a manner as required by your insurer.
