Singapore extended visit

Singapore extended visit - Brown Wooden House on Green Grass Field Near Green Trees and Mountains

How long can one stay in Singapore without requiring a work visa or other such accommodation? Could you, for example, sublet an apartment for a summer, or even a year, and have access to insured medical services or other necessities during that time?

Edit: In response to the first comment I will attempt to clarify. I guess what I'm asking is how long does a tourist visa last, how many times can it be extended and how hard is that to do? Additionally, I am from the US.

In addition I'd like to point people to the following link: Visa Policy of Singapore

Western countries appear to be VISA free currently with either 30 or 90 day Visa's. If you want to save some money, you can simply travel to Malaysia by bus and returned to get another 30 (or 90?) days. I've done this several times although it might be best to stay a few days in the other country, I've returned on the same day before.

To travel to JB by bus the easiest way is to take the MRT to Woodlands terminal. Then take bus number 950 to JB. Don't forget to bring your passport. You can hop on the same bus number to return.
