Withdrawals Made by Singaporeans and Permanent Residents Under MediSave Care

Ms Nadia Ahmad Samdin asked the Minister for Health in the last two years, what are the number of Singaporeans and permanent residents who have made withdrawals under MediSave Care from (i) their own accounts and (ii) their spouse’s accounts.

Mr Ong Ye Kung: In 2022 and 2023, close to 4,700 Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents made MediSave Care withdrawals from either their own accounts, their spouse’s or a combination of both. Of these, around 120 withdrawals were made solely from a spouse’s account.
