Singapore offers a reputed and well-established healthcare and medical system. To get good healthcare in Singapore, you need to know the kinds of health services offered.

Singapore has a dual system of healthcare delivery. The Government runs the public system while the private system is provided by the private hospitals and general practitioners. The healthcare delivery system comprises primary health care provision at private medical practitioners' clinics and the government outpatient polyclinics, and secondary and tertiary specialist care in the private and public hospitals. 80% of the hospital care is provided by the public sector and the remaining 20% by the private sector.

Patients are free to choose the providers within the dual healthcare delivery system and can walk in for a consultation at any private clinic or any government polyclinic. For emergency services, patients can go at any time to the 24-hour Accident & Emergency Departments located in the government hospitals. The Singapore Civil Defense Force runs an Emergency Ambulance Service to transport accident and trauma cases and medical emergencies to the acute general hospitals.
