How to use MyInfo for healthcare services, such as booking appointments or accessing medical records

To use MyInfo for healthcare services in Singapore, including booking appointments and accessing medical records, you can follow these general steps:

  1. Set up a SingPass account: SingPass is a national authentication system that provides secure access to various government services, including MyInfo. If you don’t have a SingPass account, you will need to register for one. Visit the SingPass website and follow the instructions to create your account.
  2. Access the MyInfo platform: Once you have a SingPass account, visit the official MyInfo website (www.myinfo.gov.sg) and log in using your SingPass credentials.
  3. Consent and authorize data sharing: Upon logging in, you will need to provide consent for MyInfo to share your personal data with the healthcare service providers. This data may include your basic personal information, such as name, NRIC/FIN number, and contact details. Review the terms and conditions, privacy policy, and data sharing permissions before providing your consent.
  4. Select the healthcare service: After granting consent, you can navigate to the healthcare section of the MyInfo platform. There, you may find options such as booking appointments, accessing medical records, or managing healthcare-related information.
  5. Follow the service provider’s instructions: Depending on the specific healthcare service you are accessing, you may need to follow additional instructions provided by the service provider. This could involve selecting a specific healthcare institution, choosing a preferred doctor, or providing additional details for appointment booking or medical record access.

It’s important to note that MyInfo integrates with various healthcare service providers, so the available features and processes may vary. Be sure to explore the platform and the specific services provided by the healthcare institutions to fully utilize MyInfo for your healthcare needs.

As the information may have changed since my last update, I recommend visiting the official MyInfo website or contacting their support for the latest instructions and guidance on using MyInfo for healthcare services in Singapore.
