Footnotes
- How to tell if your hospital/medical tax invoice(s) / receipt(s) are original and final:
a. The bill is a final bill, not an estimated or interim bill.
b. The bill is an original copy, not a duplicate or a photocopy/scanned copy.
c. The amount covered by Medisave is approved, if applicable.
d. The amount covered by MediShield / your Private Shield plan is reflected on the bill, if applicable.
Please note that submission of medical expenses claim via online e-claim portal does not require the submission of original hospital / medical tax invoice(s) / receipt(s). You must keep the original hospital / medical tax invoice(s) / receipt(s) for at least 6 months from claim submission date and must be readily available upon request.
