MediSave for the Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP)

The Chronic Disease Management Programme (CDMP) was first introduced in 2006 to help patients with chronic conditions to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for outpatient management of their conditions and help to promote health-seeking behaviours. Eligible patients can utilise their MediSave at MediSave-accredited healthcare entities (all polyclinics, all public hospitals’ specialist outpatient clinics, accredited specialist clinics, and accredited GP clinics) and subsidies at CHAS GP clinics for their chronic conditions.

These conditions often lead to more serious complications if detected late or not followed up regularly. Individuals are therefore encouraged to have a regular family doctor, undergo the recommended health screenings and have regular reviews of their chronic condition, timely medical treatment and lifestyle changes.

The CDMP currently covers a total of 23 chronic conditions:

• Diabetes Mellitus / Pre-diabetes

• Hypertension

• Hyperlipidemia (Lipid Disorders)

• Asthma

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

• Chronic Kidney Disease (Nephritis / Nephrosis)

• Schizophrenia

• Major Depression

• Bipolar Disorder

• Anxiety

• Stroke

• Dementia

• Osteoarthritis

• Parkinson's Disease

• Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

• Epilepsy

• Osteoporosis

• Psoriasis

• Rheumatoid Arthritis

• Ischaemic Heart Disease

• Allergic Rhinitis

• Gout

• Chronic Hepatitis B

Under the MediSave 500/700 scheme, patients can use up to $700 per year if they have received treatment for two or more CDMP conditions in a visit or received treatment for at least one CDMP condition with a recognised complication, or $500 per year otherwise. Each claim is subject to a 15% co-payment in cash. Since 1 February 2024, the 15% co-payment is waived for patients seeking CDMP treatment at their enrolled Healthier SG clinics.

Clinics interested to participate in CDMP

The CDMP Handbook for Healthcare Professionals (“CDMP Handbook”) is regularly updated to serve as a quick guide on CDMP and cover a range of practice issues from administrative and claims-related matters to broad guidelines on recommended care components of clinical care.

Updated 3 June 2025:

The Screen for Life (SFL) programme has been renamed to Healthier SG Screening. Under Healthier SG Screening, eligible Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents will continue to enjoy the same subsidised screening tests provided under SFL today. In addition, eligible Singapore Citizens who are enrolled with Healthier SG will enjoy special subsidies for Healthier SG Screening at their enrolled Healthier SG clinic. There is no change to the benefits that are provided today, both for enrollees and non-enrollees, with this renaming.

Changes are reflected in page 17 and page 91 of the latest CDMP Handbook.
