Are there plans for those aged below 40 years old to be included in Healthier SG?
Our population is ageing rapidly with older age groups more susceptible to co-morbidities and chronic illnesses. As such, Healthier SG enrolment will focus on those aged 40 and above to proactively prevent them from falling ill and delay the deterioration of health. We will consider further expansions after the roll-out has stabilised.
Pre-enrolment will begin in May 2023 for residents aged 40 and above with chronic illnesses and who are already seeing a Healthier SG GP. This will be followed by registration for residents aged 60 and above from July 2023.
In the meantime, all residents should continue to stay active and live healthily. There are a variety of community programmes available, including:
People’s Association (PA) activities
SportSG ActiveHealth programmes
Health Promotion Board’s (HPB) National Steps Challenge and Eat, Drink, Shop Healthy Challenge
