Can my doctor charge me for co-pay even if I've already reached my out-of-money maximum?

Whenever I go to my doctor's appointment, my doctor always charges me for co-pay even if I've already hit my out-of-money maximum.Is my doctor supposed to charge me for co-pay? If not then where should I report it to so I can solve the problem? I already tried calling my insurance company but they insist that I don't need to pay for it. What should I do?

    If your insurance company tells you that you are not required to pay for co-pay then it just means that you are not required to. You should try telling the doctor's billing department because in most cases, the doctor's are not informed about this. Once you've consulted with the billing department they should reinburse the money that you've used.

I have been ill for the past weeks

Singapore has a lot of insurance companies. Any insurance companies offer a variety of healthcare coverage plans that can range from outpatient treatment to disability coverage. With the government helping to take care of citizens large hospital bills, employers actively try to cover their employees' outpatient care and smaller bills.

Does term insurance have more worth than life insurance to you?

Put simple, term insurance is cheaper if you're planning to stay covered for the next 10 to 20 years and less than 70years in general. Whilst the whole life insurance is cheaper if you prefer coverage until 99years with limited payment term. You can opt for a mix of both the whole life and term plans, where the whole life plan covers your final expenses and/or daily expenses for you and your family in the event of untimely death or critical illnesses. Also term plans of about 10 to 20 years can come in handy if you have new-borns as extra coverage will be needed during the years when your children are growing up. In conclusion, there are no right or wrong in planning like this. How much to buy and what to buy depends on what your priorities are.

Can a baby that is blind get an insurance?

Being blind is a disability and that is why the government is granting them a lot of benefits. Since there are some tests that will do to babies to check if they really are visually impaired, it will cost a lot. But since insurance covers it, there is nothing to worry about. Even though the insurance is not specifically due to blindness, there is nothing to worry about because the medical insurance part will cover it.

I want to sell insurance too

Insurance companies are spread through out the world. They almost covered every country in the map. Not all people have insurances but people refer it to them. Some companies use this strategy for them to get more costumers in buying insurances. Most companies allow those people who have bought there insurance to sell and will give them a percentage of the product.

My father do not trust all these insurances.

There are a lot of insurance companies in todays time. But there are a lot of fake insurances too. If you do not trust the companies that you have seen or told by other people. Try to research on the companies that you trust and see what insurances they have. You can also ask your trustworthy friends if they have insurances and ask them what company is it. You can have the same insurance with your friend.

Lowest debt consolidation plan interest rates in Singapore with effectivly low interest rates

CIMB advertises the lowest debt consolidation plan interest rates in Singapore, with effective interest rates as low as 7%. This is a great rate for some borrowers that are actually able to secure it; however it is difficult to assess the total cost of CIMB's debt consolidation loan compared to a loan from another bank.Additionally, because POSB, DBS and Maybank are offering cashback promotions and HSBC is offering S$100 cashback and waived processing fees, CIMB's lack of promotions and 1% processing fee make it a less appealing source for debt consolidation loans. It also offers loans with shorter durations of up to 8 years than many other DCP lenders in Singapore.
