Synapxe: Transforming Singapore’s public health ecosystem
Founded as IHiS in 2008 and rebranded in 2023, Synapxe PTE. LTD. is Singapore’s national health tech agency under MOH Holdings. It provides end-to-end technology solutions across public healthcare institutions, including hospitals, clinics, and community care providers. By leveraging digital systems, Synapxe enhances healthcare delivery, operational efficiency, and patient outcomes.
Key platforms like the National Electronic Health Record (NEHR) enable authorized healthcare professionals to securely access patient records across institutions.
