Ng Teng Fong Healthcare Innovation Programme

About the Ng Teng Fong Healthcare Innovation Programme

The Ng Teng Fong Healthcare Innovation Programme (NTF HIP) was set up with a generous gift from the family of the late Mr Ng Teng Fong to Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) and aims to drive innovation in healthcare to benefit and enhance the health of our patients and the population we serve.

NTF HIP serves as a financial lever of innovation, and helps fund the innovation work and programmes facilitated by CHI. It supports proposals relating to:

Building Leadership in Healthcare Innovation
Workforce Transformation, through:

Care Redesign (clinical/operational processes and models)
Use of Automation / IT / Robotics / Products / Devices
Job Redesign
Use of different pedagogies for Training and Transforming our Workforce.

NTF HIP provides funding through five tracks that support CHI's strategic thrusts.

Through these, the programme looks towards improving productivity, delivering value and meeting the needs of the future healthcare system.

NTFHIP is managed and administered by the Grants & Innovation Office and supported by the TTSH Community Fund.
