This startup’s clinic software is the first to be fully compatible with HealthierSG

Galen Health is one of the vendors that joined HealthierSG’s SmartCMS Programme.

Local healthcare technology start-up, Galen Health, said it is the first clinic management system (CMS) to have the eligibility to be compatible with HealthierSG, Singapore’s healthcare reform that will be launched in the second half of 2023.

Galen Health was able to be compatible after it joined the SmartCMS Programme, which helps over 17 CMS vendors to enhance their software using the public healthcare system.

Under the SmartCMS Programme, “vendors are required to fulfill key requirements of integration with HSG web services, National Electronic Health Record (NEHR) system, Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) bundle, key MOH clinical programmes (such as National Immunisation Registry), and compliance with the Code of Practice on CMS data portability and attainment of the Cyber Essential mark for cybersecurity.”

“By achieving this high level of integration with all the key public healthcare systems, Galen will be able to enhance work efficiency for healthcare providers, minimise unnecessary administrative burdens and allow clinical staff to better focus on patient Engagement,” read the company statement.

The high cyber security standard is critical to make sure that there is the fidelity of patient records and promote patient safety, read the statement.

Data portability will also ensure that healthcare providers can seamlessly switch between CMS vendors without compromising patient care, it added.

So far, Galen Health recorded over 150 installations in primary care clinics, specialists, dental, and allied health practices.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.
