National Healthcare Group and Accredify partner to expand health platform

This includes providing shared care services through referrals from GPs and community partners.

Singapore’s National Healthcare Group (NHG) has formed a strategic partnership with Accredify, a credentials platform provider, to improve community care integration with the NHG Cares Partners Portal.

“The NHG Cares Partners Portal creates the necessary infrastructure for enhanced care continuity and personal ownership over health information,” Accredify CEO, Quah Zheng Wei, said.

According to both organisations, plans focus on expanding the portal to support shared care services for NHG’s assigned residents through referrals from general practitioners (GP) and community partners.

“Healthcare can be improved even further with digital trust technologies, such as verifiable healthcare records, which could be developed in the future for this portal,” Quah added.

Since its launch in April, the portal has automated over 400 programmes across various sites in Central and North Singapore.
