Integrated Shield Plans: Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) comprise two components: (i) A MediShield Life component run by the Central Provident Fund Board (CPFB) and (ii) additional private insurance coverage run by the private insurer. The MediShield Life component provides coverage targeted at B2/C-wards in public hospitals,
while the additional private insurance coverage provides additional coverage beyond MediShield Life coverage. IPs therefore do not provide duplicate coverage with MediShield Life. This table provides a comparison between IPs for Class B1 wards in public hospitals.
