The document summarizes the planning and development of Singapore's National Health Portal (NHP) project. The NHP aims to empower individuals to manage their health through personalized tools and resources available via a unified web portal. Phase 1 of the project, launched in 2008-2009, included a personal health record system and several health management tools. Future phases will expand functionality by integrating more data sources and adding new tools, with the goal of increasing user adoption over time through various outreach strategies.
