Spinal Fracture Stabilisation (Non-Cervical): Protecting Neurological Function


Thoracic or lumbar spinal fractures may require stabilisation to prevent neurological injury and deformity.
What It Costs
Typical MOH-aligned fees:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 15,000 – 25,000
• Anaesthetist fee: SGD 4,000 – 6,500
Implants and ICU care add significantly to cost.
What’s Typically Covered
Coverage is usually robust:
• Major trauma or emergency surgery
• Hospitalisation, ICU, and anaesthesia
Insurance Tip
Confirm whether spinal implants and revision surgery are covered under the same limit.
Conclusion
Spinal stability safeguards independence. Insurance must support decisive intervention.
