Excision Biopsy of Exostosis (Upper or Lower Limb, Bilateral): Removing Symptomatic Bone Growths
Exostoses are benign bony outgrowths that may cause pain, restrict movement, or compress nearby structures. Bilateral excision biopsy may be required when both limbs are affected.
What It Costs
For bilateral exostosis excision biopsy, MOH benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 3,400 – 5,400
• Anaesthetist: Not applicable
What’s Typically Covered
Most comprehensive plans cover:
• Symptomatic or function-limiting exostoses
• Medically indicated biopsy and excision
Insurance Tip
Ensure symptoms such as pain, nerve compression, or restricted motion are documented.
Conclusion
Benign bone growths can still cause real problems. Insurance should recognise functional impact.
