Microsurgical Resection with Reconstruction: When Precision Determines Outcome

Microsurgical resection is used for complex tumours or defects where nerves, vessels, or critical structures must be preserved. Reconstruction is often performed during the same operation.

What It Costs

For microsurgical resection with reconstruction, MOH benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 12,000 – 20,000
• Anaesthetist fee: SGD 3,000 – 4,800
Operating time, ICU care, and specialist teams significantly increase total cost.

What’s Typically Covered

Coverage is generally strong when:
• Surgery is medically necessary
• Performed for cancer or major trauma
• Hospitalisation and ICU benefits apply

Insurance Tip

Confirm whether microsurgical reconstruction is covered under the same surgical event or treated as a separate claim.

Conclusion

Microsurgery demands expertise and insurance planning must match that complexity.
