Private hospitals in Singapore will share patient health records on national platform from 2025

All nine private hospitals in Singapore will soon share health records of their patients on a national platform to ensure better continuity of care across healthcare providers, the Ministry of Health announced on Saturday (Nov 9). The National Electronic Health Record (NEHR) system, which was introduced in 2011, serves as a centralised repository for essential health data such as diagnoses, medications, allergies and laboratory reports.
