baby shield health insurance long overdue


there is an article of the same name penned by ms salma khalik in today's edition of the straits times.

she pointed to a need for a baby shield health insurance plan to cover the following:

a. every day, more than 2 babies (or about 860 babies a year) are born with some serious birth defects.
b. thousands of babies are born prematurely.

she argued that there should be a babyshield plan to cover all babies before birth and premiums should be payable from the medisave account.
