Dennis Tan on Building a Healthier SG
It is important to ensure that health plans are appropriately developed for residents of different age groups in preventing a range of diseases and health conditions, says MP Dennis Tan. Speaking in Parliament on Tuesday (Oct 4), he wanted to know when the care protocols will be fully rolled out beyond the first year of Healthier SG. He pointed out that family doctors will have new responsibilities with residents enrolled under them. He wanted to know how this will impact their workload. Mr Tan also stressed the need to ensure that the majority of Singaporeans participate and have a positive attitude towards the health plan set for them. He also noted that Healthier SG is "silent" on dental care and wanted to know if oral health will be covered in the programme.
