Medisave for Chronic Disease Management Programme
To reduce the out-of-pocket cash payments for outpatient bills, you can use your family member’s or your own Medisave (up to 10 accounts) of up to $500 per year. Each claim is subject to a 15% co-payment in cash.
​
Medisave covers consultations, drugs and medications, laboratory and diagnostic tests.

The withdrawal limits were recently revised for MediSave500/700 on 1 Jan 2021, and Flexi-MediSave on 1 Jun 2021.
