MOH benchmarks indicate:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 8,400 – 11,900
• Anaesthetist fee: Not benchmarked

Coverage is usually robust:
• Emergency vascular reconstruction
• Limb-saving procedures

Emergency classification helps bypass pre-authorisation barriers.

Restoring circulation saves limbs. Insurance responsiveness matters.
