Not only does it cause the highest number of deaths in a year, but the costs of treating it can also be astronomically high. Furthermore, with the recent introduction of the Cancer Drug List CDL affecting MediShield Life and Integrated Shield Plans, one who requires a drug not on the list may not be able to claim it and have to pay for it out-of-pocket. In this article, we’ll cover Factors that influence the costs of cancer treatment The different types of treatment available and the estimated costs associated with them How to finance the cost of cancer treatment 
 and more So, read on! In Summary Late-stage cancer treatment in Singapore can cost $100,000 to $200,000 a year or $8,400 to $16,700 a month But there’s more to it, so read on further. SIDE NOTE When was the last time you've done proper financial planning or went through a review of your finances? In this day and age in Singapore, doing so will absolutely improve the quality of life for you and your loved ones. Here are 5 reasons why financial planning is so important. Why Is Cancer a Big Issue in Singapore? While Singaporeans enjoy a high average life expectancy currently at years compared with other countries, that comes with downsides. Firstly, Singaporeans spend more years in ill health now – years to be exact. Secondly, cancer contributes to of all deaths, and it is the leading cause of death in Singapore. And lastly, the lifetime risk of developing cancer in Singapore’s population is estimated to be one in every four to five people. When we look at statistics on life insurance claims, cancer is the top cause of death claims accounting for of all death claims. And it accounts for of all critical illness claims. With all of these facts and statistics, how can one ignore the topic of cancer? Other than the health concerns, the financial impact of developing cancer will be heavy. There are 2 types of costs the cost of treating cancer and the cost of not being able to work because of it. We’ll address both of them. The 4 Most Common Cancers in Singapore Before we move on to the costs, let’s just narrow our focus down to the more common cancers in Singapore. Here are the top 10 cancers for men Type of & intrahepatic bile & other urinary And here are the top 10 cancers for women Type of & fallopian From this data, here are the top 4 cancers in Singapore Colo-rectum Breast Prostate Lung Factors that Influence the Cost of Cancer Treatments In general, medical costs are increasing at a much faster pace than overall goods and services, which is why we experience higher hospital bills. But let’s just talk about cancer for now. Most of us believe that cancer treatments are expensive due to how intensive they can be and the lengthy duration for a full recovery. Not only that, complications can arise along the way as relapses do happen and conditions can get worse. But not all cancers are the same. Here are some factors that will influence the costs of treating cancer 1 The Stage of Cancer Generally, at diagnosis, the later the stage of cancer the patient is in, the higher the costs for treating it. At an advanced stage, a more aggressive approach might be needed, thus requiring more intensive treatments. Such treatments might be unconventional and they incur more costs. 2 Potential for Complications There are many types of cancer. If cancer resides at or near a vital organ, the complexity to treat or remove it increases. And if complications arise, the patient’s condition might be severely weakened, leading to greater care and support needed. 3 Preferred Hospitals and Wards “I want the best.” When it comes to our health and survival, we want the best if possible. The thought of death is scary not just for ourselves but for our family members too. It is common for Singaporeans to search for the best oncologists. But the price of treatment from a private hospital can be hard to digest. There are still other costs which can be more costly than just the inpatient charges. 4 Type of Treatments Needed Depending on the patient’s condition, there is a multitude of available treatments. A combination of a few may be needed. It should be known that the earlier you detect cancer, the greater the probability to reduce/eliminate the damages, and that means fewer treatments are needed. In the later stages, more solutions will need to be administered. Needless to say, the longer the duration of the treatments, the higher the costs. The Different Types of Costs in Cancer Treatments There are various ways to treat cancer and they can be split into two sections Diagnosis and Treatments. 1 Cost of Diagnostic Tests & Screenings With regards to cancer, if we wait for symptoms to appear, it might already be too late. And detection takes more than just checking for lumps. That’s why it’s good to go for regular screenings and check-ups because earlier detection and treatment leads to better outcomes. Examples of such diagnostic tests Blood tests Health screenings MRI scans CT scans PET-CT scans Colonoscopies Mammograms Biopsies etc A concoction of various tests might be needed to detect and diagnose properly. NOTEEven after treatments are done, you might still need to do these tests regularly to check for cancerous cells In most cases, imaging tests will come first. These are the CT, MRI, PET-CT scans, etc. They are done first because they are less intrusive ways to detect cancer. At Singapore General Hospital SGH, a PET-CT scan costs $2,400. If imaging tests aren’t enough, a biopsy might be needed. A biopsy is done to extract a sample of tissue from the affected area. The tissue will then go through further analysis to determine whether it’s cancerous or not. It can be done as a day surgery or as an inpatient, depending on how invasive it is to get the sample. Here are some of the average costs of biopsies Type of CancerType of HospitalAverage Bill SizeBreastPrivate$5,378Public Unsubsidised$2,052Public Subsidised$658LungPrivate$5,479Public Unsubsidised$2,347Public Subsidised$689ColorectalPrivate$2,936Public Unsubsidised$1,620Public Subsidised$673ProstatePrivate$3,970Public Unsubsidised$1,695Public Subsidised$539Note Bills listed can be either for inpatient or day surgeries. 2 Cost of Surgeries Once the cancer is properly diagnosed, the patient might be recommended to go for surgery. Cancer surgery is the oldest and most effective type of treatment. It is an operation to cut open the body and remove the cancer and/or healthy tissues surrounding it to ensure all the cancer is removed. For example in breast cancers, a surgeon might remove a portion of the breast or the whole breast. How the surgery is performed can also affect the cost, whether it’s an open surgery or a minimally invasive one. Surgeries can also be paired with other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Here are some of the average costs of surgeries by cancer type Type of CancerType of HospitalAverage Bill SizeBreastPrivate$25,231Public Unsubsidised$11,411Public Subsidised$2,585LungPrivate$28,108Public Unsubsidised$8,832Public Subsidised$3,194ColorectalPrivate$43,708Public Unsubsidised$23,693Public Subsidised$6,059ProstatePrivate$58,355Public Unsubsidised$27,495Public Subsidised$9,400Note Bills listed can be either for inpatient or day surgeries. 3 Cost of Chemotherapy Chemotherapy is the use of drugs infusion into a vein, taking a pill, etc to kill cancer cells. It can also be used to control the spreading of cancer, shrink a tumour, or ease pain. There are different types of chemotherapy and a patient might need a combination to treat it. Chemotherapy affects the whole body and that’s why cancer patients usually feel weak. It can also cause side effects such as hair loss or other severe complications. The costs of chemotherapy depend on the type of drugs needed and how often they’ll be administered. For example, it can be a monthly cycle for a schedule of a few months. Here are some of the average costs of chemotherapy Type of HospitalAverage Bill SizePrivate$8,318Public Unsubsidised$2,859Public Subsidised$1,142Note Bills listed can be either for inpatient or day surgeries. 4 Cost of Radiotherapy Radiotherapy or radiation therapy uses high doses of radiation to kill cancer cells. Usually, it involves beams of high energy directed to the affected area so it doesn’t affect the whole body, unlike chemotherapy. The radiation damages the DNA of the cancer cells causing them to die. The results might not be immediate and it could take weeks after the treatment is done. Although it seems like a great way to treat cancer, there’s a lifetime limit to how much radiation that targeted area can take. The cost of radiotherapy is expensive and can cost $25,000 to $30,000. 5 Cost of Other Treatments Surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation therapy are the most common methods to treat cancer. But collectively, they may not be enough for certain patients. So there may be a time when other treatments are recommended. Examples of other treatments Immunotherapy Hormonal therapy Laser therapy Stem cell transplant Blood product donation and transplant Photodynamic Therapy etc Let’s take a closer look at immunotherapy. Immunotherapy is a type of biological therapy which uses substances made from living organisms to treat cancer. It makes use of the body’s immune system to fight cancer. Like other cancer treatments, it comes at a high cost and can range from $7,000 to $15,000 every 3 weeks. An extended period of treatment will cause major issues with the bank account. As you can see, a lot of variables come into play when treating cancer. It’s difficult to just put one number as an average. However, Seedly has worked with the Singapore Cancer Society to get insights into the costs. The cost of treatment for later-stage cancer in Singapore can easily range from $100,000 to $200,000 yearly or $8,400 to $16,700 monthly. How to Finance the Costs After knowing the costs that are involved in diagnosing and treating cancer, what are your financing options? As mentioned earlier, there are 2 types of costs the cost of treatment and the cost of not being able to work. 1 MediShield Life If you’re a Singapore Citizen or Permanent Resident, you may be asking, “Does MediShield cover cancer treatments?” And the answer is yes, up to the claim limits. MediShield Life only provides very basic protection. The benefits are usually geared towards Government B2/C wards. So if you intend to go to a Government A or a private ward, you’ll need to pay much more. Here are some benefits of MediShield Life Even after you’ve hit the claim limits, you may still use your MediSave balance to pay part of the bill, but that still has its limits. 2 Integrated Shield Plan An upgrade to MediShield Life is the Integrated Shield Plan IP offered by insurance companies. Private medical insurance helps to provide added protection and the ability to cover private wards. You can also add on a rider to substantially for deductibles and co-insurance, which will reduce out-of-pocket expenses. Best of all, you’re able to use your MediSave balance to finance a portion of the premium and the rest will be in cash. There are also benefits that the IPs have that MediShield Life doesn’t, such as coverage for pre and post hospitalisation costs. NOTEIf you have pre-existing conditions, it may be hard to get coverage. That’s why if you’re healthy, that’s the best time to get covered. 3 Government & Other Financial Assistance 1. MediFund If a patient is unable to pay for the medical bills even after MediShield Life claims and using MediSave, he/she can seek financial help from MediFund. MediFund is an endowment set up by the Government to assist patients who have difficulties with their remaining hospital bills. 2. Medication Assistance Fund In the Medication Assistance Fund, eligible Singaporeans can receive further subsidies for expensive drugs that are not on the Standard Drug List but have been accessed to medically require them. 3. Other Organisations There are charities out there such as the Singapore Cancer Society which help patients even further. You can consider donating to help the less fortunate. 4 Life Insurance The previous 3 points deal with the cost of paying for cancer treatments. But there’s also another cost which is the inability to work to earn an income. Even if you’re covered for the hospitalisation costs, what about the other daily expenses, commitments, and future goals? They can’t just stop, and life still has to go on for you and your family. Is your family able to cope with a higher financial responsibility if you can’t contribute to the household income? And, not all medical costs are covered by such health insurance. There are still other items including alternative treatments that are excluded. That’s when another form of insurance, namely life insurance with critical illness coverage, comes in. It provides a lump sum payout if death, total and permanent disability or critical illness were to happen. This payout can be then used to pay for ongoing expenses and other commitments. Most term insurance and whole life insurance allow you to attach a rider to cover critical illness. Some plans can cover all stages of a critical illness early, intermediate, and late. And if you just want to cover critical illness, there are standalone early critical illness plans out there. Wrapping Up So there you have it. Hopefully, you’ve gained some insights into the different types of cancer treatments and their costs in Singapore. The financial resources needed to treat cancer and being out of work run very high. If you’re worried about the costs of medical expenses, learn more about MediShield Life and the various Integrated Shield Plans. If you’re worried about losing your income due to an illness like cancer, ensure that you have sufficient life insurance and critical illness coverage.

Au Canada, entre 40 et 45 % des personnes seront confrontĂ©es, tĂŽt ou tard, Ă  un cancer, selon une Ă©tude de la SociĂ©tĂ© canadienne du cancer, qui rĂ©vĂšle que cette maladie peut aussi reprĂ©senter un gouffre financier pour les familles sur dix qui mĂšnent une bataille contre le cancer disent ĂȘtre confrontĂ©es Ă  des problĂšmes financiers, conclut le rapport. Le coĂ»t moyen d'une sĂ©rie de traitements de chimiothĂ©rapie contre le cancer avoisine les 65 000 $, et toutes les provinces ne remboursent pas l'ensemble des frais. La WinnipĂ©goise Teresa Solta, qui a survĂ©cu au cancer, a dĂ» dĂ©clarer faillite lorsque la maladie a Ă©tĂ© diagnostiquĂ©e. Elle croyait qu'il y avait plus de filets de sĂ©curitĂ© dans le rĂ©gime d'assurance publique. La SociĂ©tĂ© canadienne du cancer croit qu'il existe beaucoup d'incomprĂ©hension au sujet de ce qui est rĂ©ellement couvert par le rĂ©gime public. Par exemple, le rĂ©gime d'assurance emploi verse des prestations en cas de maladie pouvant atteindre 55 % du salaire, mais ces prestations ne sont versĂ©es que pendant 15 semaines. Or, la pĂ©riode moyenne de traitement est nettement plus longue que 15 semaines. Le rapport souligne que le Canada est Ă  la traĂźne puisque ces prestations dĂ©passent les 26 semaines dans 90 pays. Selon l'Ă©tude, le cancer a engendrĂ© des pertes de revenu de 3 milliards de dollars en 2009 au Canada. La porte-parole de SociĂ©tĂ© canadienne du cancer, Erin Crawford, croit que les Canadiens devraient prĂ©voir un diagnostic de cancer comme ils prĂ©voient une retraite. Le cancer est responsable de prĂšs de 30 % des dĂ©cĂšs au pays. Prises en charge dans l'Ouest et le NordLe Manitoba prend en charge les coĂ»ts pour les anticancĂ©reux et les traitements de soutien par voie orale depuis avril Colombie-Britannique, l'Alberta, la Saskatchewan, les Territoires du Nord-Ouest et les Nunavut exonĂšrent les personnes atteintes d'un cancer des coĂ»ts des mĂ©dicaments.
