National Population Health Survey

The National Population Health Survey (NPHS) is an ongoing survey to assess the health status of Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents. Jointly conducted by the Ministry of Health (MOH) and Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health, National University of Singapore (SSHSPH, NUS), the survey focuses on obtaining key health statistics from selected households across Singapore.

The NPHS aims to collect pertinent insights on demographics and health-related factors such as chronic diseases, exercise, health screening, mental well-being, nutrition and smoking. This data helps shape policies and develop programmes that cater to the nation’s health needs.
