Dr Kanwaljit Soin asked the Minister for Health whether the premiums for MediShield and MediShield Plus are pooled together and, if not, why not.

BG George Yong-Boon Yeo: The premiums for MediShield and MediShield Plus will be pooled together and managed under one fund. However, there will be no cross-subsidy. To facilitate the evaluation and review for each scheme, the premiums and claims will be tracked separately.
