Medical Cover Cost vs Benefit Analyzer

Compare SHIF and private medical covers on annual cost, expected out-of-pocket, and estimated coverage value.
1. Household & usage assumptions Same for all plans
For affordability status only – use your realistic monthly budget for premiums.
2. SHIF / national scheme Baseline cover
Use rough estimates based on SHIF benefit tables and your chosen facility.
3. Private medical plans Top-up / alternative covers
Please enter sensible values: household size & usage assumptions must be positive for meaningful comparisons.
💡 This is a high-level comparison. Always check detailed benefit tables, exclusions, and hospital panels before choosing a cover.
