If I enrol with a Healthier SG GP, will they be able to access my previous health records that are currently with my polyclinic and hospital?
Your Healthier SG GP will be able to access your key health records submitted by Public Healthcare Institutions (PHIs) through the National Electronic Health Record (NEHR) system. NEHR allows healthcare providers to access a patient’s health records from participating healthcare institutions, provided that the patient has given consent for the sharing of their health information. This ensures that your Healthier SG GP can have a comprehensive view of your health history to provide you with the best possible care.
Private healthcare institutions (e.g. GPs) that have signed up for access to NEHR will have access to patient information in the NEHR. You can find the list of healthcare institutions participating in the NEHR here.
