Singlife bolsters healthcare plan solutions through partnership
Policyholders will have direct access to IHHSG's network of hospitals and specialist clinics.
Singlife, a Singapore-based financial services company, joined forces with IHH Healthcare Singapore (IHHSG), Southeast Asia's private integrated healthcare provider.
This collaboration aims to tackle the challenge of managing healthcare costs effectively while enhancing the customer experience.
IHHSG operates renowned hospitals like Gleneagles Hospital, Mount Elizabeth Hospital, and Parkway East Hospital.
Single policyholders in Singapore will benefit from affordable, personalised, and trusted healthcare solutions through this partnership.
Singapore's rising healthcare costs have garnered significant attention on the national agenda.
Starting from 9 September, Singlife Shield and Singlife Health Plus policyholders will have direct access to IHHSG's extensive network of hospitals and specialist clinics without requiring prior authorisation from their insurer for in-patient care.
