As a father of two young boys, one navigating the “ABCs and 123s” landscape of kindergarten and the other on the verge of PSLE, let me tell you – life’s unpredictability can feel like riding the rollercoaster. One minute, you’re cruising, and the next, you’re plummeting down at high speed.
In the hustle and bustle of Singaporean life, where the unexpected waits around every corner, nothing gives you more peace of mind than knowing that if life throws you a curveball (or a durian), you’re prepared. Today, let’s talk about a financial safety net: insurance.
Introducing Singlife Shield Starter and Health Plus Starter
Singlife revolutionised the insurance market with the launch of Singlife Shield Starter and Health Plus Starter in July 2023. This innovative Integrated Shield Plan is available for just S$1 out of pocket cost for the rider, Singlife Health Plus Starter, (while the main plan Singlife Shield Starter premium of S$300 is payable via Medisave), making it the first of its kind, providing coverage of up to S$20,000 per year while reducing out-of-pocket expenses, ensuring your medical needs are met.

The Need for Insurance in “Healthy” Lives
Let’s talk about something that is often overlooked. You may be in good health, but have you considered the possibility of unexpected hospitalisation due to accidents or health conditions like food poisoning or appendicitis? In Singapore, these are common reasons for hospitalisation. It’s important to be prepared for the unexpected, and that’s where medical insurance comes in. It’s not about expecting the worst; it’s about being ready for any unforeseen circumstances that may come your way.
