How Medical Loans Can Help You Pay Off Medical Costs With Ease

Medical emergencies. They happen when we least expect it. With rising healthcare costs and increasing restrictions on insurance coverage and claims, if one is ill-equipped financially when a medical calamity hits, what then? 

In Singapore, one can easily rack up hundreds of thousands in medical bills, especially where surgery is involved. Many Singaporeans are struggling to afford rising healthcare costs to cope with health-related expenses especially when our life expectancy is an average of 85 years or more. You could tap on your MediShield Life and Medisave but there are limits and restrictions to how much you can withdraw. When medical emergencies strike, people of all ages can find themselves financially crippled. 

In other scenarios, you might be suffering from skin related problems that require cosmetic surgery, or want to achieve perfect vision with LASIK, or undergo a bariatric surgery for weight loss but are unfortunately short on cash. While it may be a viable option to save up for these procedures, some people might not have the luxury of time if their conditions greatly affect their health and well-being.

Health is our biggest wealth in life. If you are facing financial difficulties and need immediate assistance, why not consider taking up a personal medical loan? Unlike getting a cash advance on a high-interest credit card, you can apply for a medical loan with low interest rates while waiting for your insurance payout for instance. At Goldstar Credit, we have medical loans tailored for your every need.

What Is A Medical Financing Loan

Medical loans are personal loans intended to specifically fund medical expenses that cannot be covered by health insurance, Medisave, MediShield Life or other forms of financing. Examples of medical expenses include emergency or optional surgical procedures, out of network charges, medical debt consolidation, or any other medical cost that may arise out of your insurance cover. 

As there are restrictions and withdrawal limits for different claims under health, accident, hospital and critical illness insurance and even for Medisave, it is not wise to bank on them in times of emergencies. If you are not able to dip into your savings to pay off your medical bills upfront, an alternative would be to take out a medical loan.

 

Advantages Of A Medical Loan

A medical loan can help take the burden and stress off your finances so you can focus on getting the treatment you need. With our quick and easy application and approval process, you may be able to get the funds for your procedures much faster than if you had to wait for your insurance to check and decide whether the particular surgery or condition is covered or not.

In situations where your health insurance or Medisave do not cover other medically related expenses such as additional living expenses during your recovery and treatment, a medical loan would also come in handy. Some medical insurance policies would require you to pay your medical bills upfront before reimbursing you, and if you need a quick, reliable and safe option to access cash, you should also consider taking out a medical loan. 

Apart from the almost instant cash loan, you can also rest assured that our medical loans cover a wide range of procedures from cosmetic surgeries to LASIK to orthoptics and more.

If you have dependencies such as aging parents or young children, or even family members who fall critically ill and in need of urgent financial assistance, as a matter of life and death, a medical loan would be one of the best options for you.
