Singapore
Healthcare in Singapore uses a true two-tier system, for both the provider network and the insurance funds. A government-sponsored and subsidized system of hospitals accepts all patients, with a guaranteed list of services. A parallel system of private hospitals provides services not available in public hospitals, or available with extra amenities (such as private rooms and other boutique services.
Singapore uses a universal insurance fund that all citizens are required to participate in as a baseline. Seniors and certain groups are subsidized in their membership in the universal basic insurance fund.
Optional additional supplementary insurance funds are available for purchase for elective coverage, such as for plastic surgery, or for extra amenities while in hospital.
