Will MOH be regulating all home-based and community-based healthcare services under HCSA now?

The Healthcare Services Act 2020 (HCSA) FAQs, Regulatory Scope of the HCSA


Updated by MOH

MOH will only be regulating home-based and community-based Outpatient Medical Service licence and Outpatient Dental Service licence via the “Temporary Premises” MOSD for now.


While non-doctor and non-dentist-led services, such as home nursing, will not be regulated under HCSA currently, MOH will closely monitor the landscape of such services. As the service complexity evolves and there is evidence of impact and risks to patient safety and welfare, MOH will take the necessary steps to licence these services in subsequent phases.
