应对医疗费用上涨:如何保护我们的财富

随着医疗费用的不断攀升,管理好我们的健康和财富变得比以往任何时候都更加重要。在新加坡,综合健保计划(Shield Plans)等医疗保险费用的上涨,引发了许多个人和家庭的讨论:如何在预算中做好平衡,同时为意外医疗支出做好准备?

虽然我们无法控制医疗通胀的成本,但我们可以控制我们的准备方式。以下是一些策略,帮助我们在面对不断上涨的保费和医疗费用时保护自己的财富。

 

1. 为我们的需求选择合适的保险

保险是我们对抗医疗费用意外的第一道防线。但我们是否为不需要的保障支付了过高的费用,或者更糟的是,保障不足?

•定期审查我们的保单:人生阶段会发生变化,我们的保障需求也应随之调整。年轻的职业人士可能更关注住院计划,而有家庭的人则需要涵盖家属的保障。

•明智地比较和选择:保费上涨并不意味着我们需要立即更换保险。除了价格,还要评估计划的保障范围、年度理赔限额和排除条款,在可负担性和保障之间找到平衡。

 

2. 建立专门的医疗储备金

即使有保险,自付费用也可能会积累。创建一个专门用于医疗的储蓄账户,可以在需要时减轻财务压力。

•采用综合储蓄策略:将我们每月预算的一部分分配到医疗紧急基金,就像支付一笔“账单”给未来的自己。

•利用CPF保健储蓄账户(MediSave):在新加坡,MediSave允许我们支付符合规定的医疗费用和保费,无需直接使用现金流,从而缓解经济压力。

 

3. 将医疗规划纳入我们的财务目标

医疗规划应该是我们整体财务战略的一个重要组成部分,而不是事后才考虑的事情。

•结合保险与投资规划:例如,带有储蓄或投资成分的综合保险计划,可以帮助我们在应对医疗费用上涨的同时实现财富增长。

•规划长期护理:随着预期寿命的增加,长期护理费用可能会非常可观。可以探索Eldershield、CareShield Life或私人护理保险等选项,以覆盖这一常被忽视的需求。

 

4. 投资于预防性医疗

预防性医疗是最具成本效益的医疗方式。今天优先关注我们的健康,可以减少未来昂贵的治疗费用。

•定期健康筛查:早期发现疾病的成本远低于处理后期病症的费用。

•养成健康生活方式:规律运动、均衡饮食和充足睡眠是减少长期医疗费用的简单而有效的方法。

 

5. 寻求独立财务顾问的帮助

医疗费用可能是不可预测的,但一个可靠的财务计划可以带来清晰度。一位独立的财务顾问可以帮助我们:

•分析我们当前的保障并发现不足。

•优化我们的保险组合,使其符合我们的预算和生活方式。

•创建可持续的计划,以管理保费和意外费用。

与独立财务顾问合作可以确保我们获得量身定制的、客观的建议,满足我们的独特需求和目标。

 

展望未来

医疗费用始终是一笔重要的支出,但通过正确的策略,我们可以掌控局面。通过审查我们的保险、建立储备金,并将医疗规划纳入我们的财务目标,我们可以更好地为未来做好准备。

我们的健康是我们的财富——保护两者需要今天做出明智的决策。

 

一起加油!

Personal Story:

I almost lost an arm and that was when I realised I had zero insurance.

Many years ago, I was living my life on the edge and very involved in many adventurous outdoor sports. All these came to a shocking realisation when almost lost my arm (or even my life), while kayak surfing with the high waves and deep waters overseas.

This lucky escape began my journey into the financial advisory business.

I wanted every person and family to know about the hard truth of being underinsured early and help everyone become better prepared. We run the risks of losing so much with every day we are not taking action to protect ourselves and our families financially.

Nobody has to deal with the same shock that I had experienced. You deserve better.

 

Why Me?

✅ I have a unique forte in helping families with their financial diagnosis and planning, since day one. I have been helping families, including young couples, big families, DINK couples, as well as their individual’s complex needs.

✅ I am a dedicated learner in the financial industry. I invested in my Masters in Wealth Management at SMU for this reason. I am still constantly upgrading myself year-on-year to become the best financial consultant for my diverse client profiles.

✅ My forte is in financial diagnosis.

My experiences in accounting and finance helps in giving proper diagnosis of your unique portfolio so that the correct approach/solutions could be personalised for you.

✅ I have a one-stop solutions platform.

Being an independent financial broker, I can represent you to find the solutions you need, all in your best interests. No need for hard selling. I am here for you and your family.

I am a strong believer that you can achieve more, beginning with what you have.

Feel free to reach out to me for a free consultation session with you and/or your family.

See you soon!
