[SINGAPORE] Affordability and sustainability need to be among the key considerations when putting together the MediShield Life plan, which is expected to be introduced next year.

An eleven-member review committee has been tasked with exploring how to establish the much-talked-about MediShield Life, which will be an enhanced version of the national insurance plan, MediShield.

The committee includes chairman Bobby Chin, a member of the Council of Presidential Advisers; president of the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) Diana Chia; and Tan See Leng, group chief executive of private healthcare group Parkway Pantai.
