Hello,
I'm hoping if anyone here can point me in the right direction or give me some well needed advise?
The skinny: I was a Singapore Citizen when I had an operation done but I've since changed to an American Citizenship without a PR yet as I am serving my NS.
Apparently I cancelled my medisave (without my knowledge) and I'm wondering if anybody can tell me what the minimum requisites are for being applicable to the medisave.
Will the MOH help me review my case, because I have 3 months left to service my NS and I hope that they can help me with my medisave app asap. A 22k hospital bill is really hefty.
Help!

Help!
can tell me the exact picture ...why did u cancell ur medisave just like that..do you know medisave is not intended for immediate hospitalisation
you can approach the hospital to arrange an instalment plan
else u will be sued by the hospital
i did not cancel it, i think it automatically ceased when i cancelled my Singapore Citizenship. But I'm not sure if that is correct?
wow... my days working at SGH also no encounter this type of cases...
Why not try calling CPF board abt ur medisave issue...
As for problems with payment, u can procede to either the business office or the social welfare if u're having problems with payment... Note: The latter is more for patients with financial difficulties...
You are serving your NS (18 y.o. to 21 y.o.).
You think your Medisave has $22,000 to pay for the hospital bills? Most hospital bills are not 100% deductible from your Medisave, you still need to come up with a certain percentage in cash.
If you are serving NS, you should have gone to your camp Medical Centre, SAF will pay for all the necessary treatment.
