Wide Excision of Soft-Tissue Lesion (Upper or Lower Limb)

Wide excision removes extensive soft-tissue lesions or tumours with adequate margins to prevent recurrence.

MOH benchmarks show:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 4,500 – 7,800
• Anaesthetist fee: Not available

Coverage is usually available for:
• Medically indicated tumour excision
• Reconstructive limb surgery

Ensure the procedure is justified as oncologic or high-risk excision, not cosmetic removal.

Adequate excision protects long-term outcomes. Insurance should reflect medical necessity.
