We'll take care of everything. You just need to board the plane.

While the government has been striving to make healthcare affordable for Singaporeans, there are still certain procedures that are costlier compared to the rest of the world.


Some of us might prefer to do certain procedures overseas not only because of the reduced price tag, but also because of their expertise in that particular procedure.


For instance, many Singaporeans opt to travel to South Korea for aesthetic surgeries / procedures because their standard of surgery there is generally better.


If you are thinking of ways to fund your overseas surgery cost, Lending Bee’s overseas surgery financing might just be what you are looking for.


An overseas surgery loan is a loan specially tailored to fund the cost of your procedure / surgery. Apart from those, it can also help to cover for the cost of your air tickets, accommodation and living expenses during your time overseas.

Why do people opt to travel overseas for certain procedures?

1. It’s cheaper

Price is the primary reason that most of us choose to go overseas for treatment.

Some of us might now wonder if the price we pay will affect the quality of healthcare.

However, if you pick the right doctor and right country to seek medical help, then there won’t be a compromise on the quality of care.

Dental work, for example, is a major saving opportunity for patients.

2. Better service 

Along with lower costs, many individuals are grateful for the excellent service provided by foreign hospitals.

The benefits of medical care overseas are substantial when you stay in the hospital overnight.

From deluxe suits to extra rooms for family members, every effort is made to make your stay as comfortable as possible at an affordable price.

3. Quality

Some patients worry about the quality of physicians and facilities in foreign hospitals and clinics.

It is normal for many people to conclude that a lower price will reduce the quality of the product or service.

However, it is the exact opposite for a properly planned medical trip.

You can ensure that your health will be taken care of by experienced and professional practitioners every step of the way.

4. Accessibility

People who seek healthcare overseas have more access to more treatment options than those who stay home.

Along with access to advanced treatment solutions, common surgical procedures are also available.

With a properly planned trip, many surgeries can be performed within days of arrival.

5. Travel opportunities

Talk about killing two birds with one stone.

Going overseas for treatment is an opportunity to tour and experience a new environment.

You can enjoy the recovery process with a scenic view of the beach after undergoing surgery.

Family members that accompany their loved ones can also ease the stress and anxiety of a medical procedure by going shopping or relaxing at the beach.

For those who are not going through major surgery, there are even more reasons to take advantage of getting treatment in another country.

What are 3 common medical procedures that Singaporeans go overseas for and their cost?

1. Dental work

With the rising costs of several dental procedures, more people are opting to travel to other countries for dental care.

This is an effective way to get the care you need while reducing costs for major dental work like orthodontics, implants and root canals.

Even if it’s just for a regular check up which entails simple procedures such as scaling and polishing, these can easily cost over $100 in private clinics.

Thus, many Singaporeans prefer to take a short 10-minute drive across the causeway to Johor Bahru. Dental procedures there cost about half that of what you would expect to pay in Singapore.

Here’s how much you can expect to pay for the following dental procedures:

  • Scaling and Polishing: 120 MYR – 180 MYR (S$40 – S$59)
  • Root Canal: 600 MYR – 1,7000 MYR (S$196 – S$556) per tooth, 1000 MYR – 1,500 MYR (S$327 – S$429) per crown
 
2. Plastic surgery
 

Talk about plastic surgery and the first place that comes to mind would probably be Seoul, South Korea.

Singaporeans usually travel to Seoul or Bangkok for plastic surgery.

Especially for Seoul where they have the highest number of cosmetic surgery procedures per capita worldwide with reliable and experienced doctors.

More importantly, it also costs less, especially for Seoul since prices have to be kept competitive simply due to the sheer number of plastic surgery clinics available.

Here’s how much you can expect to pay for the following plastic surgery procedures:

Seoul:

  • Eyelid Surgery: 586,293 ₩ – 1,407,102 ₩ (S$708 – S$1,698)
  • Rhinoplasty (Nose Job): 1,172,890 ₩ – 3,166,803 ₩ (S$1,416 – S$3,821)

Bangkok:

  • Breast augmentation: 100,000 THB – 200,000 THB (S$4,428 – S$8,855)
3. Fertility Treatment
 

Many patients travel to other countries to receive fertility treatment. Reasons include restrictions in their countries and the lower costs of treatment abroad.

For example, in Singapore, you can only go through In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) if you are 45 and below.

Moreover, younger women under 40 receive subsidies from the government but if you are above 40, the cost can range between $10,000 – S$15,000 per IVF cycle.

The next common fertility procedure is egg freezing.

In Singapore, only women with medical needs such as those who are going for chemotherapy are permitted to freeze their eggs. Hence, the next best bet would be to head overseas.

Here’s how much you can expect to pay for the following fertility treatment procedures:

Malaysia:

  • Per IVF cycle: 15,300 MYR – 21,000 MYR (S$5,025 – S$6,899)
  • Per egg freezing cycle: 15,000 MYR – 25,000 MYR (S$4,926 – S$8,210)

Bangkok:

  • Per egg freezing cycle: 45,000 THB (S$1,993)

Australia:

  • Per egg freezing cycle: 11,300 AUD (S$11,639)
