1. You are unable to perform at least two (for Singlife CareShield Plus) or three (for Singlife CareShield Standard) of the six Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).

3. There are two ways to pay for a limited time; the later of the two options will apply. The two ways are:

a) The Life Assured may pay up to the policy anniversary after they turn 68
b) The Life Assured may pay for 20 years from entry age (if Life Assured joins at age 49 or older)

4. MediSave use is applicable to an amount of up to S$600, per calendar year, per life assured. Premiums exceeding this limit will have to be paid in cash. If there are insufficient funds in the designated MediSave account, cash payment will be required for the difference.

5. The monthly benefit refers to the monthly payout when the Life Assured suffers from a Severe Disability, as defined in the plan.

6. The Life Assured may receive an additional 20% of their monthly benefit - for up to 36 months - while they're receiving their monthly benefit or rehabilitation benefit.

7. The Life Assured may receive an additional 60% of their monthly benefit - for up to 12 months - while they're receiving their monthly benefit or rehabilitation benefit.

8. A lump sum benefit will be payable if the Life Assured dies due to any accident or sickness while receiving either the Severe Disability Benefit or the Rehabilitation Benefit. The Death Benefit will amount to 3 times of the last paid Severe Disability Benefit or the Rehabilitation Benefit, whichever is applicable.

9. The policyholder may exercise this option, without providing further evidence of insurability at any of the following life stage events, when the Life Assured:

a) purchases a property;
b) marries, divorces or is widowed;
c) becomes a parent by having a newborn child or by adopting a child below 19 years old
d) salary increases by 50% or more from application;
e) completes a skills development course of at least six months;
f) purchases a new individual life insurance policy or a Supplementary Benefit from us, with full underwriting at standard terms; or
g) spouse suffers a Severe Disability (with the inability to perform at least three of the six ADLs) or dies.

This option allows the policyholder to increase the policy's monthly benefit with extra premium payable. The total monthly benefit that can be increased under this option is limited to 50% of the policy’s initial monthly benefit, as agreed at policy inception or at the date this option is exercised – whichever is lower. This option is extended to standard life only. Please refer to the Product Summary for more details.

About Neo Tao You Page

My passion for financial and insurance planning started when I was diagnosed with a lifelong medical condition at the age of 18. Though under control, I was not eligible to get most insurance covers. After graduating from college, I took the path less travelled and stepped into the financial planning career, advocating proper insurance cover that I myself did not have the privilege to get.

After an initial 3 years in Great Eastern Life Assurance, I now serve my clients from Financial Alliance Pte Ltd, a Licensed and Independent Financial Advisor, so that I can help clients get the best cover in terms of price, benefits and support.

This in turns fit into the larger picture of Financial Planning, where we plan our finances for 3 scenarios:

  1. If we survive,
  2. If we don't survive, and
  3. if we survive but we're not well.

My mission is to transform the way people look at Financial Planning and our industry, as a professional and meaningful service that one should engage in their lifetime.

I am also specialized in Home Insurance (against fire and other hazards) and I have recently appeared on Channel News Asia's Talking Point where I talk about Home Insurance
