Orthopaedic care doesn’t come cheap.
It’s a concern that requires specialist care that may require a range of treatments where the cost can stack up over time. Fortunately, there are different insurance coverage to help us afford these services without cutting back on the quality of care we receive.
The A/Professor Andrew Quoc Dutton Orthopaedic & Sports Clinic, we partner with different insurance providers in Singapore. We look at each of them below and what can be expected of them if we come to seek orthopaedic care.

They’re known for their life insurance policies and variations of it such as medical, accident, and critical illness protection. It allows you to gain access to over 290 specialists, each with a minimum of 5 years of specialist experience.
If you seek orthopaedic care, it covers pre-hospitalisation which includes pre-negotiated outpatient consultation fees. It also covers hospitalisation that comes with worry-free treatment through their AIA HealthShield pre-authorisation requests that allows you to bill directly with the hospital, day surgery centre, or clinic. Treatment bills are covered fully within 100 to 180 days prior to hospitalisation stay.
After hospitalisation, treatments are also covered within 100-180 days or up to 13 months after hospitalisation.
