Chronic Illness Screening (CIS) and Screen for Life (SFL) are campaigns driven in collaboration with Yishun Health (YH), Health Promotion Board and GP Partners with the aim to encourage cardiovascular screening and provide health interventions to YH residents for better preventive health.

In partnership with GPs in the community, CIS and SFL will encourage residents to do regular screening and follow-up care with their preferred GP clinic close to their home also aims to support GPs and residents with health coaching and lifestyle intervention advice conducted by YH's Regional Teams for holistic preventive care.

YH collaborates with community partners a​nd GP Partners to organize Community Screening events for residents living in the North who are deemed to be 'hard to reach'. Following such Community Screening, YH directs the screening participants who require clinical follow-up to our said GP Partners.

If you would like to find out more and/or partner with us for upcoming screening events/initiatives, please contact us at pco@nhg.com.sg.

GPFirst is a national programme that encourages residents with non-urgent conditions to first seek treatment at participating GPs rather than at the acute hospital's Accident & Emergency Department (A&E).

Should the Healthier SG clinic or participating GP assess that the patient requires onward referral to either an Urgent Care Clinic (UCC) or A&E for acute interventions, the patient will receive a $50 subsidy off the prevailing attendance fee upon arrival at the UCC/A&E

Under shared care programmes, YH Specialists and our GP Partners co-manage patients with stable conditions for holistic, convenient and accessible care. Through such collaboration and close working relationship with the specialists, the patient still receives the same level of care as before, and ultimately be right-sited to the GP Partner.

To find out more and/or partner YH for any the above programmes please contact YH at pco@nhg.com.sg.
