SUBSIDIES COVERAGE FOR CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORING MEDICAL DEVICES

5 May 2026

NOTICE PAPER NO. 675

NOTICE OF QUESTION FOR ORAL ANSWER

FOR THE SITTING OF PARLIAMENT ON 05 MAY 2026


Name and Constituency of Member of Parliament

Mr Ng Shi Xuan

MP for Sembawang GRC


Question No. 1867

To ask the Coordinating Minister for Social Policies and Minister for Health (a) what are the respective numbers of adults and children who have received subsidies for a continuous glucose monitoring medical device since its introduction in 2024; and (b) whether there are plans to expand subsidies to models other than the Dexcom G6, and if not, why not.


Answer

1               MOH does not specifically track the number of adults and children who received subsidies for Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) devices.


2               Whether a CGM is subsidised or not, depends on its cost effectiveness, which in turn depends on the price quoted by the supply for the Singapore market.  MOH is in constant discussion with suppliers and regularly reviews CGM models for subsidy coverage.
