Abstract

Nutritional support is used frequently in Singapore’s healthcare settings, but limited research has been published on how it is financed. This paper aims to provide a narrative review on the financing of nutritional support in Singapore for acute care, step-down care, intermediate and long-term care (ILTC), community and home settings.
