It is common for expats living and working in Singapore to consider getting international health insurance, however this additional health insurance can also apply to Singaporeans who tend to travel abroad often for work. While expats working in Singapore are likely to have their health insurance covered by their organisation, some may want to supplement their benefits and find an international health plan that better suits their lifestyle. Likewise, local MediShield plans for Singaporean citizens and PRs don’t offer international coverage and those who have to travel often for work may want the extra peace of mind.
