Singapore being one of the most expensive healthcare hub in the world. While Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents have the basic safety net of MediShield Life to cover large hospital bills, without high-quality group health insurance, expats working in Singapore are exposed to the full cost of medical treatment.
Many expats in Singapore feel that they are under-protected when it comes to medical insurance. Healthcare package provided by employers in Singapore often have low limits that can leave you financially exposed to large hospital bills if you have an accident or get ill.
If you already have an international health insurance plan, you can apply on a Continuous Personal Medical Exclusion (CPME) basis, which allows you to switch plans while maintaining the same or similar cover, without needing to complete another medical questionnaire.
We will help find you the best health insurance plan at a great value.

Staying in Landed PropertyIt’s strongly advisable to always use all-risk insurance for landed property, as there are just many more things that can go wrong with a property of this size. Take note of temporary accommodation and storage pay outs – chances are, you have a bigger family or much bulkier items, compared to the average home owner. That could mean greater need for storage and temporary housing. Also, look out for debris removal limits: landed properties can reach up to five-digit sums for debris removal.

It is designed to cover the statutory and common law liability attaching to an employer for death or injury sustained by an employee resulting from an accident arising out of and in the course of employment.
