The IMPAct Expertise

SingHealth professionals are experienced in providing technical assistance in those Clinical and Public Health Functions (see figure on the right from “World Bank and Public Health Operations”, 2002 ), Technologies, and Services  which have been defined as “Essential and Cost-Effective” by the World Health Organisation, the World Bank and bilateral donors like USAID and their implementing partners. 

SingHealth’s comprehensive expertise and experience enable us to participate as an effective partner for donor/lender organisations and their government and non-government clients who want to apply targeted or sector-wide approaches for assessing and improving the performance and quality of Essential Clinical and Public Health Functions, Technologies and Services (EPHF/T/S). Proper performance of EPHF/T/S contributes to achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by helping to prevent and reduce morbidity and mortality for women and their under-five children, and by improving the prevention, surveillance and control of emerging and re-emerging infectious disease problems such as Healthcare-Associated Infections and Antimicrobial Resistance and other disease control priorities which contribute to the burden of disease in developing countries.
