Singlife opens lower-cost healthcare to foodpanda riders

Enrolment is free for all active delivery partners in Singapore.

Singlife has partnered with food and grocery delivery platform foodpanda to provide delivery partners with affordable insurance plans.

“From today, thousands of foodpanda delivery partners in Singapore will be eligible to participate in RiderCare by foodpanda and Singlife,” the joint press release said.

It further added that enrolment comes at no cost and is open to all active foodpanda delivery partners. The RiderCare gives access to a range of outpatient medical services at preferred rates across an extensive healthcare network.

The scheme offers reduced rates across a network of more than 1,000 medical clinics managed by HMI Managed Healthcare. 

The coverage includes general practitioner consultations and teleconsultations, preventive healthcare such as annual health screenings and flu vaccinations, and specialist treatments. 

The programme also covers dental care, physiotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine, and mental wellness resources. Delivery partners can access these services, locate clinics, and use a digital health card via the Singlife mobile application.  

The initiative comes as Singlife expands its employee benefits services to gig economy workers. Both companies confirmed they plan to explore further protection solutions for foodpanda riders in the future.
