About Age Well SG (ASG) Programme: IT System Participation

Age Well SG (ASG) is a national programme led by the Ministry of Health (MOH) to support seniors to age well in their homes and their communities.

A long-term programme that will be progressively implemented, ASG will see a comprehensive nationwide transformation across the areas of housing, transport, active ageing and care services to anchor ageing in the community.

As part of the ASG programme, the Active Ageing Centres (AAC) service model will evolve to provide integrated social and health support for all seniors. The new service model, known as AAC2.0, requires AACs to automate and integrate their processes with the MOH's national IT systems for more seamless care delivery and submission of data to the Agency for Integrated Care (AIC) and MOH.

With that, AACs will need to either adopt a new IT system or enhance their existing IT systems with the capabilities to support the necessary system interfaces for regular and effective data sharing, to meet the new service requirements and reporting.

ASG-compatible AAC IT System Qualification Framework

MOH and Synapxe are looking to establish long-term sustainable relationships with IT partners that would be able to support AACs in their multi-year ASG journey. IT partners are required to meet all the prevailing mandatory requirements under the ASG-compatible AAC IT System Qualification Framework from functional, technical, cybersecurity and AAC2.0 capability perspectives.

Eventually, all AACs will be regulated to adopt a whitelisted ASG-compatible AAC IT system that best suits their needs, and comply with the AAC2.0 service model requirements.

The ASG-compatible AAC IT System Qualification Framework will be updated progressively to incorporate additional features as requirements evolve. Find out more about the framework below.
