Scar Revision Surgery for Functional Limitation
Scar revision may be required when scars restrict movement, cause pain, or interfere with function, especially near joints.
What It Costs
MOH benchmarks show:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 2,000 – 4,000
• Anaesthetist fee: Not available
What’s Typically Covered
Coverage applies when:
• The scar causes functional impairment
• It follows trauma or prior surgery
Insurance Tip
Clearly differentiate functional limitation from cosmetic concerns.
Conclusion
Functional scars deserve functional solutions. Insurance should recognise necessity.
