Major Release for Lower-Limb Soft-Tissue Lesions: Restoring Function Surgically


Major soft-tissue releases are performed when contractures or scarring severely limit lower-limb movement.
What It Costs
For major release of lower-limb soft-tissue lesions, MOH benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 4,500 – 6,700
• Anaesthetist: Not typically required
Rehabilitation costs often follow surgery.
What’s Typically Covered
Coverage is generally available when:
• Functional limitation is documented
• Surgery is medically necessary
• Day surgery or inpatient benefits apply
Insurance Tip
Ask whether physiotherapy and rehab sessions are capped post-surgery.
Conclusion
Function-restoring surgery deserves function-supporting insurance.
