With the COVID-19 vaccine getting rolled out to the masses, you will probably get your own dose soon. Like many, you are also probably wondering how badly the side effects might hit you. If so, this blog could be just the right read for you. We will go over the side effects that can possibly accompany your COVID-19 vaccine shot and let you know how to stay covered with coronavirus vaccine insurance. Let’s get started…
What are the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine? Most people report feeling an onset of fever after receiving their dose. Other possible side effects include painful sensation at the point of injection and a headache. Fortunately, in most cases, these symptoms are mild and go away on their own. However, there have been reports of patients experiencing extreme severe reactions such as anaphylaxis too. How can I stay covered against the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine? In severe cases, some people need to be hospitalised for side effects due to the COVID-19 vaccine. Fortunately, you can get covered for the expenses of this hospitalisation. There are two ways by which you can be covered for hospitalisation due to side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine –
Integrated Shield Plan Your Integrated Shield Plan now covers hospitalisation due to side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine. If an insured individual suffers from any allergic reaction that requires hospitalisation, the ensuing costs will be covered by their Integrated Shield Plan. This coverage – announced by Life Insurance Association (LIA), Singapore - indeed comes as a huge help and is indeed, the need of the hour.
Coronavirus vaccine insurance You can also opt to sign up for coronavirus vaccine insurance through your insurance provider. This plan will cover you for hospitalisation that occurs directly as a result of either of your COVID-19 vaccine doses. Your claim will generally get paid as daily hospital cash – the sum could be around S$100 (coverage is dependent on the insurer).
The COVID-19 vaccine insurance plan is available free of cost to Singaporean citizens, Permanent Residents, and foreigners with valid passes. You can sign up for coverage easily on the health app of the insurer. No medical underwriting is required. Just make sure to get your coverage before your vaccine dose or else you won’t be eligible for a claim. Since the COVID-19 vaccine insurance is complimentary, it makes perfect sense to take full advantage of this offering. In fact, you can stay covered against the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine with the dual protection of your Integrated Shield Plan (that will take care of hospital costs) and your coronavirus vaccine insurance (that will help with hospital daily cash for surplus expenses).
So, with your Integrated Shield Plan and coronavirus vaccine insurance protecting you, you can go ahead and get your vaccinationwith peace of mind! Hope this has been an informative read for you today. Take care, stay safe.
