MediSHIELD the double-edged SWORD

Couldn’t resist the pun. Just trying to lighten up a heavy topic.

From 2007, all newborns can be covered under the Medishield scheme, with premium deducted from Papa’s CPF account.

CPF sent me a reminder letter after I ignored the first one for 2 months. I am supposed to declare little princess’ health condition.

I contemplated making a false declaration and report that there are no health issues. Everyone I spoke with advised otherwise.

The downside to honesty would mean that this record will stick to little princess for life. Her future insurance cover will be more expensive than others, and almost certain to include many exclusions.

Sigh.
