Why Singapore

Singapore Healthcare System was ranked 6th by the World Health Organization in 2000 and was ranked 1st by the Bloomberg in 2014 and has effective laws, strict government standards and regulations that eliminate any possibility of medical malpractice.

Many hospitals in Singapore have international accreditation from the Joint Commission International (JCI), ISO or OHSAS.

Singapore readily adopts state-of-the-art technologies and invests in medical IT encouraging medical staff to be open to innovative solutions for better safety and reliability.

Singapore is home to over 30 medical technology companies, and businesses like Siemens Medical Instruments and Baxter International have set up R&D and manufacturing sites there. In addition, Singapore hospitals and institutions have joined forces with world-class American universities like John Hopkins, Duke and Stanford to pursue breakthroughs in the medical field.

Medical travellers can check the estimated cost for various procedures  on Ministry of Health website.

There is no mark up prices for tourists, every foreign patient pays the same fee as Singaporean does in the private healthcare sector. For the government (restructured) hospitals, there are subsidized rates for Singaporeans/PR.

Healthcare in Singapore is of superior quality while still remaining affordable. In 2014, Bloomberg ranked Singapore’s healthcare system the most efficient in the world.

Singapore maintains very high safety standards in blood transfusion. Blood Services Group HSA (previously known as Singapore’s Centre for Transfusion) was appointed a World Health Organization (WHO) Collaborating Blood Centre for Transfusion Medicine for the Western Pacific Region in1992.

The physicians are well qualified and medications are sold in easily accessible pharmacy outlets in a highly regulated and ethical manner.

Singapore has built and maintains a high-quality healthcare system at a lower cost than any other high-income country in the world. Even though healthcare prices in Singapore are a little costlier than in other Asian nations like India and Thailand, it is markedly cost-effective and cheaper than treatment costs in the western nations like US and UK.

Singapore has about thousands internationally qualified doctors who are specialists in their respective fields and adopts an institution practice model, whereby clinicians work collaboratively with each other, as well as an extended team of nurses, therapists and other allied health professionals to offer the optimal overall treatment plan for each patient.

Singaporean doctors are being constantly audited as well as clinics undergo regular inspection to detect and avoid any unfitness.

All healthcare professionals like physicians, pharmacists, technicians, dental practitioners and nursing staff are registered with Singapore government authorities.
