The Ministry of Health (MoH) in Singapore has launched the Industry Transformation Map (ITM) 2025 for healthcare. The Healthcare ITM 2025 draws a stronger focus on transforming the health of its population through innovative and sustainable strategies, and building a future-ready workforce that is ready for the challenges ahead.

The ITM 2025 refreshes the ITM for healthcare which was first launched in 2017, in light of the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as new technologies and opportunities for the sector. MoH is working closely with its stakeholders to build and maintain strong public-private-people partnerships to meet the ITM 2025 goals.

MoH aims to strengthen the research and innovation ecosystem to better drive and support enhancements in health. This will be done through various efforts, such as revamping the Healthy 365 and HealthHub digital applications, harnessing data more effectively to enable health research, as well as through National Clinical Translational Programmes and Translational Platforms which aim to accelerate clinical adoption of value-based healthcare and support Health Systems Transformation.

The Ministry is also working on addressing new and emerging regulatory issues in healthcare through implementing the Healthcare Services Act and introducing the Health Information Bill.

To build a future-ready workforce, MoH will redouble its jobs and skills efforts to meet the growing healthcare needs of an ageing population. This includes strengthening hiring for nursing and support care roles.
