Transforming Healthcare through Digital Innovation
About SGHealthdex
SGHealthdex consolidates data sharing in the healthcare sector by unifying data flow across ecosystem stakeholders. It allows seamless access to standardised medical data – through the preferred systems of healthcare providers or our web portal – to unlock hours of additional quality patient time. Leveraging on high-quality data also expedites informed and critical decision-making.
Data Fragmentation and Low Connectivity Create Inefficiencies
Digital
maturity gaps
Healthcare providers are at different levels of digital adoption. A variety of systems are being used, with some still reliant on pen-and-paper records. Sharing of data is mostly via non-integrated methods (e.g. email, post, fax) that are not as effective or efficient.
Interoperability challenges
Lack of standardisation and differing formats – coupled by data sharing in silos and incompatibility across platforms or different care settings (e.g. hospitals, GPs, allied health) – result in gaps in clinical data being captured and shared, with an absence of universal healthcare data standards.
Governance & trust issues
Healthcare stakeholders may hesitate to share data due to sensitivity or fear of misuse.
Inefficiencies & errors in data handling
Time-consuming manual effort & transcription errors may lead to incomplete & inaccurate data, resulting in inefficiencies in patient care.
The Healthcare Sector Connects, Shares and Facilitates
Whatever the level of digital maturity, SGHealthdex overcomes complexities and challenges
of data sharing, to allow more time and focus on quality patient care, and better healthcare outcomes.

Potential Use Cases
Seamless Screening For Diabetic Patients
A healthcare data exchange can greatly improve screening programmes by ensuring timely, accurate, and secure sharing of results between providers, GPs, and patients. Currently, many results—like diabetic eye or foot checks—are sent via fragmented channels such as emails or letters, leading to delays and errors.

Coordinated Care For Ageing Population
As Singapore’s population ages, a robust healthcare data exchange is vital for coordinated, preventive, and patient-centered care. Elderly patients often move between hospitals, GPs, and community services, making seamless data sharing key to continuity.

Data Advisory and Consultancy
Transformative data consultancy empowers organisations – at any point in their digital journey – to turn data into a strategic advantage. In today’s dynamic landscape, businesses face growing complexity, from fragmented systems to compliance demands.
We partner you to align data strategy with business goals, identify high-impact opportunities, and design scalable, future-ready solutions. Our approach builds data infrastructures, enables secure and interoperable data sharing, and establishes robust governance frameworks to improve efficiency, unlock new revenue streams and enable cross-organisational collaboration, By treating data as a strategic asset, not a by-product, we enable transformation that is measurable, sustainable, and innovation-led.
Data Governance
Putting trust, quality and control at the epicentre of our platform, DEX is committed to strong data governance – ensuring data quality, controlled sharing, and security by design.
Data Quality and Standards
We work closely with ecosystem stakeholders and sector leads to define and enforce clear data standards across our platform. Where global or local standards exist, we adopt them. In their absence, we collaborate with stakeholders to establish fit-for-purpose guidelines tailored to each use case. Once implemented via DEX, all data exchanged on the platform adheres strictly to these standards – eliminating inconsistencies and ensuring coherence across datasets.
Consent-Based Data Sharing
Data sharing is governed through a simple, secure, and transparent consent framework. Participants establish data-sharing relationships – much like a connection request on a social media platform – by setting up one-time consents with their intended counterparties, which can be revoked by either party at any point in time. This consent matrix ensures that only the right parties can access the right data, with full control and visibility at every step.
Secure, Zero-Storage Infrastructure
Our infrastructure is designed for data flow, not data storage. No data is retained in our data exchange highway – it simply moves securely from sender to recipient. All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest. Our platform adheres to the highest cybersecurity standards, with ISO 27001 and SG Cyber Safe certifications. We enforce robust protections including regular vulnerability assessments, strong access controls, role-based permissions, authentication safeguards, and secure API configurations – ensuring your sensitive data is always well protected.
Communities and Committees
In addition to data sharing across organisations and entities, DEX also partners with industry leaders, climate experts and policymakers to advance important goals, including sustainability. This includes:
Carbon Data Open Protocol
As a member of the Carbon Data Open Protocol (CDOP), DEX contributes to shaping a trusted, interoperable infrastructure for carbon data. As part of the CDOP committee, we advance open standards that ensure transparency, consistency and accountability in carbon accounting. This reflects our commitment to high-integrity data ecosystems that support effective climate action and credible sustainability reporting – empowering organisations to make informed decisions in the transition to a low-carbon economy.
A: DEX supports sharing of both structured and non-structured data. One of the key values of sharing structured data through DEX is being assured of data quality in accordance with the relevant industry or regulatory standards.
A: All data exchanged is encrypted end-to-end, both in transit and at rest, using secure protocols like Transport Layer Security (TLS), which ensures that data remains private and protected from tampering, while it moves between systems. The platform follows cybersecurity best practices and is ISO 27001 and SG Cyber Trust mark certified.
