According to Great Eastern and ActiveSG, the partnership advocates for Singaporeans to live healthy lives while being covered from accidents or injuries. The plan can be purchased by ActiveSG members through its mobile with a premium of SG$9 per year – which includes accidental death/permanent total disablement benefits up to SG$20,000 and medical expense reimbursements up to SG$200.
