Older Singaporeans to receive medisave top-up

About 1.1 million Singaporeans aged 50 and above will receive a one-off top-up to their Medisave Accounts ranging from $200 to $500.

 

The higher amounts will go to those who are older and less well-off.

 

This measure was announced earlier this year during Budget 2010, and is aimed at helping older Singaporeans with their healthcare expenses.

 

The CPF Board will be sending letters to eligible Singaporeans from today to inform them of the amounts they will receive.

 

Singaporeans who are CPF members and have earlier signed up for the GST Credits, will receive the top-up automatically and there is no need to sign up again for the Medisave Top-Up.

 

They can expect the top-ups on September 30.

 

Eligible Singaporeans who do not have CPF Accounts and have not signed up for their GST Credits are reminded to do so by December 31 to receive the Medisave Top-Up.

 

They can check their eligibility and sign up via the GST website: www.gstoffset.gov.sg.

 

Alternatively, they can also sign up by completing the GST sign-up form available at all Community Centres, Community Development Council offices or CPF Service Centres

I wud rather have the cash.

[Icedbs]

wah low...200 - 500 for medisave very little leh. Might as well don't give.

 

For the old people, that amount to just one day of hospital stay. What is the use of that when most old folks hospitalization are really quite prolong affairs.

 

Give cash better la...200-500 can spent on many things.

 

 

[Subzero]

give cpf no use lar. if wan to give, give cash will be better. cos it will be very helpful to alot of pple. alot of pple dun even have cpf account. especially the old folk.

[Latka]

Dey smart mah. Gives the impression dat dey are people's govt caring for citizens. Give like never give liddat. It's only a nbr reflected on one's cpf a/c.

[Ladykillerz]

yeah, i agreed.

should give 200$ to 500$ in cash instead of topping into CPF.

the good hundreds of dollars can served well to the needy very much.

[Kopites]

Aiyo me don't qualify again. KNNCB. 9k don't have. Now medisave also exclude me. Don't want my vote issit ???

[Kopites]

Don't be happy so fast. I foresee the cost of medical care gonna increase after erection again. So eventually = nil.
