the TLDR you need
Integrated shield plan will no longer offer ‘As-Charged’ coverage for cancer from 1st April. This is in line with the MOH policy and MediShield Life (MSL) changes. For Income Enhanced Incomeshield Plan, do note that coverage will be based on the below for drugs on the cancer drug list.
If you have the main plan and rider (Deluxe Care Rider / Plus Rider / Classic Care Rider / Assist Rider)
(Private Hospital) Preferred Plan + Rider: 15x MSL Limit
(Govt A Ward) Advantage Plan + Rider: 12x MSL limit
(Govt B1 Ward) Basic Plan + Rider: 9x MSL Limit
If you have the Main IP plan only
(Private Hospital) Preferred Plan: 5x MSL Limit
(Govt A Ward) Advantage Plan: 4x MSL limit
(Govt B1 Ward) Basic Plan: 3x MSL Limit
Conclusion: Beyond just covering for copayment, the rider is now a necessity if you want to be covered at a more relevant level.
And while Incomeshield is still one of the most consistent and premium/coverage competitive plans available in the market. it may be prudent to consider a standalone cancer rider that can cover you more comprehensively. Whatsapp me to find out more/

I believe that “Worrying is not planning and Hope is not a good strategy”, and that the purpose of Financial Planning is to allow us to lead fulfilling lives while being financially wise.
As such, my role as a Certified Financial Planner CFP® is to help my clients build those sound financial strategies and design action plans that put them on track to their financial goals so that they can live the best possible life for themselves.
This is done via a systematic approach of ongoing cash flow management & asset allocation, as well as investment management, estate planning, and tax optimization.
I also ascertain that I stay up-to-date with industry trends and policies changes to ensure that my clients benefit from the latest strategies and opportunities available.
Over the years, I have developed a specialty in comprehensive financial planning for busy legal professionals & educators. I also particularly like assisting working mothers & young families to achieve their long term financial goals. Working with the largest independent financial advisory (IFA) firm in Singapore also frees me from product pressures and allows me to only recommend solutions that suit my client’s needs. And client’s interest, is always the core of my FA business.
Being a wealth planner is my dream career and this is what I hope to do for a long time.
Other than financial planning & investment, I love to travel, read, bake and I am an adrenaline enthusiast. I am most looking forward to the day my children join me on my adventures.
