The Basic Healthcare Sum (BHS) for government pensioners will differ from other CPF members in their cohort, depending on the coverage of their Post-Retirement Medical Benefits Schemes.

The BHS is not applicable to government pensioners under the Fixed Amount on Ward Charges Scheme (FAW). The working contributions allocated to their MediSave Account and MediSave top-ups will be channelled to their other CPF accounts.

Pensioners under the Co-payment on Ward Charges Scheme (CPW) have a lower BHS than other CPF members in their cohort. Thereafter, any working contributions allocated to their MediSave and MediSave top-ups will be channelled to their other CPF accounts.

Pensioners under the Comprehensive Co-Payment Scheme (CCS) and MediSave-cum-Subsidised Outpatient (MSO) Scheme will have the same BHS as other CPF members in their cohort.

Dependants of pensioners will have the same BHS as all other CPF members in their cohort.
