Should I bring my mother to meet a financial advisor to buy a shield plan, or just buy the plan directly?

Intend to buy a shield plan for my mother. She has not visited any clinics or Hospitals as far as I can recall. From what I know, pretty straightforward case. Is a must for her to meet a financial adviser?

Hi Anon,

In regards to shield plan, just to highlight that premiums are based on age, thus there might a cash element needed for premiums, as the current withdrawal limit from medisave to pay for the shield plan is limited to $900 per annum, just thought that it would be good for you to know​​​

There is no direct purchase available for private integrated shield plan. Accordingly, the applicant and the insured (your mother) has to consult an insurance agent for advice and to submit an application.

During the application, we will declare her health situation accordingly.
