Claim Ceilings for Maxillofacial Day Surgeries

MediSave cannot be legally tapped for aesthetic adjustments or basic scaling. It strictly subsidizes procedures classified heavily as day-surgeries involving bone structure modification. Here is the operational ceiling map verified specifically against clinics in Yishun and Ang Mo Kio.

Surgical Procedure Table of Surgical Operations (TOSO) Standard MediSave Maximum Withdrawal Limit
Impacted Wisdom Tooth Surgery Includes bone removal/tooth division Up to $1,250 per tooth
Titanium Dental Implant (Insertion Only) Surgical placement into jawbone Up to $1,250 limit mapping
Bone Grafting (Sinus Lift) Maxillary volumetric augmentation Up to $1,250 limit

Yishun Claim Process Authority

In Yishun, facilities like United Dental Surgery (UDS) handle all Singpass MediSave linkage directly through their front-end administration. Their surgical billing logic mathematically aligns with the $1,250 ceiling, often bringing Out-of-Pocket liabilities virtually down to $0 for wisdom tooth procedures via an automated e-file mechanism.
