PATIENTS can now consult doctors digitally and even receive medical certificates online, as the Ministry of Health (MOH) works with telemedicine providers to explore service models.

On Wednesday, the MOH announced the launch of a "regulatory sandbox", with selected telemedicine providers developing service models within well-defined patient safety and welfare parameters.
