Panel Discussion: Population Musculoskeletal Health: How Do We Do It? 
Musculoskeletal conditions are currently the top cause of disability both in Singapore and around the world leading to pain, impaired function, reduced productivity and poor quality of life. In line with the HealthierSG, there is an urgent need to transform the model of care of musculoskeletal conditions towards an integrated population health approach focusing on prevention across the healthcare continuum from community to primary and tertiary care in alignment with the National One-Rehab framework. The Expert Panelists will address how to promote population musculoskeletal well-being and health through an integrated, preventive and community care, in a sustainable healthcare ecosystem​.
