Healthcare can have a major impact on your finances if you’re unprepared, so today in conjunction with World Cancer Day, Roshan Kanesan explores key parts of insurance and healthcare planning with VP Thanga, executive director and Licensed Financial Planner with Blueprint Planning. They get into life, critical care, and medical insurance, as well as common questions like ‘do I need my own medical insurance if I have insurance from my company?’ and how to prioritise if you’re financially constrained.
