Secondary Skin Grafting After Burns: Completing the Healing Process
Secondary grafting is often required after initial burn management to achieve durable wound coverage and improve function.
What It Costs
For secondary skin grafting, MOH benchmarks show:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 3,000 – 6,000
• Anaesthetist fee: SGD 1,200 – 2,000
Donor site care adds to total cost.
What’s Typically Covered
Most plans cover:
• Medically necessary reconstruction
• Hospitalisation and anaesthesia
Insurance Tip
Confirm whether multiple graft stages are reimbursed individually or bundled.
Conclusion
Burn recovery is staged. Insurance should recognise every stage.
