The Big Story Ep 41: MediShield Life premiums to rise for better benefits – understanding these changes
6:33 mins
Synopsis: This is a special episode of The Straits Times' video series The Big Story.
MediShield Life premiums will go up in 2021 by as much as 35 per cent, both to cater to rising healthcare costs, as well as to pay for better benefits.
This will be the first increase in premiums for the compulsory health insurance since its launch five years ago.
Senior health correspondent Salma Khalik makes sense of these latest changes with The Big Story hosts Hairianto Diman and Olivia Quay.
