Multiple Trigger Finger Release: Treating Multi-Digit Tendon Locking
Trigger finger affecting multiple digits causes pain and locking due to flexor tendon sheath constriction. Surgical release restores smooth finger motion.
What It Costs
MOH benchmarks show:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 1,900 – 4,300
• Anaesthetist fee: SGD 750 – 1,100
(Higher fees may apply when more fingers are released.)
What’s Typically Covered
Most plans cover:
• Medically necessary tendon release
• Day surgery procedures
Insurance Tip
Document number of fingers released, as this affects reimbursement levels.
Conclusion
Multi-finger problems require scaled coverage not single-finger assumptions.
