Hi, is it very common for elderly who are 60 and above to not have any health insurance?

Hi Anon,

As Hariz mentioned, every Singaporean is insured with Medishield life. If you are interested in looking at an integrated shield plan, you could look at coverage within government hospitals as the premiums are affordable and also the coverage allows the individual to select a class A ward.

So that might be something you can look out for

For older generations they do not have that concept so it may not be very common.

It would proportionate to how educated the society is. Singapore in general has better coverage than in Malaysia, where most of the parents/relatives I know do not have that.
