• The Singapore Healthcare Biometrics Market Size is Expected to Hold a Significant Share by 2035

According to a research report published by Spherical Insights & Consulting, The Singapore Healthcare Biometrics Market size is anticipated to hold a significant share by 2035, Growing at a CAGR of 21.8% from 2025 to 2035. The market for healthcare biometrics in Singapore is driven by a growing number of users, government data security regulations, and the growing demand for efficient fraud detection and prevention solutions in the healthcare industry, as well as greater use of mobile devices.

Market Overview

Healthcare biometrics refers to the application of biometric identification and authentication technologies, such as voice recognition, facial recognition, fingerprint, and iris scanning, in medical contexts. These programs verify patients and staff, protect medical data, prevent insurance fraud, and limit access to vital locations. Significant development potential is created by integrating with national health ID schemes, extending into patient self-service kiosks, and Authenticating Home Healthcare. Additionally, cross-border patient information access and medication dispensing facilitated by biometrics can provide new revenue sources.

The Singaporean government has introduced an app that allows individuals to access public services using their fingerprints and facial recognition, providing a glimpse into their vision for biometrics that facilitates smooth government services. The Central Provident Fund (CPF), which is in charge of social security payments, was the first Singapore government agency to launch biometrics on a mobile app. To create a prototype health information management system, biometrics uses a variety of technologies, including computer programming, data management, biometrics, and system design and modelling using the Unified Modelling Language (UML).

The development of cloud-based biometrics has also been aided by advanced technological advancements in AI and IoT. Large-scale biometrics deduplication and verification are accomplished with biometrics as a service, which also assists healthcare IT teams in configuring and optimising the system to support a range of healthcare applications.
