Episode Synopsis
Most of us save for retirement, emergencies, and medical bills but we rarely plan for something far more common: long-term disability.In this episode of the DollarsAndSense Podcast, Timothy sits down with Ong Hui Ming, CEO of ECON Healthcare Group, to unpack what long-term disability actually looks like in Singapore and why so many families are caught off-guard.They explore the emotional weight families carry, the financial strain that comes with home care, rehabilitation, or nursing home support, and the tough decisions caregivers often have to make. The conversation also breaks down what CareShield Life actually provides, and where the gaps still are before discussing how families can prepare early so they’re not overwhelmed when a health crisis suddenly changes everything.This episode is brought to you by Great Eastern Singapore.Follow us on our socials:Facebook: / dollarsandsensesg Telegram: https://t.me/dollarsandsenseInstagram: / dnssingapore Listen to our podcasts on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6XkfHXOUXtFWfAWC7q0MwZ?si=fdc217f0643746f7Don’t forget to subscribe to our e-newsletter to receive the latest updates from us: http://bit.ly/DNSxEnewsletter
