Synapxe tackled the challenge of over 600 heterogeneous healthcare IT systems by shifting the focus from point-to-point technical fixes to structural standardisation and governance.
At HealthTechX Asia 2026, Mr Cheng Hai Feng, Director of Software Engineering & Development (SEED) at Synapxe, explained that disparate legacy systems create a costly, error-prone integration landscape, so Synapxe pursued “data liquidity” by adopting the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) as a common clinical language and developing the Singapore Core Dataset for Interoperability (SGCDI) to map FHIR to local clinical contexts. This standardisation enabled rapid, repeatable integrations, reduced repeated requirements work, simplified testing and development, and improved semantic alignment.
