However, little is known about the benefits of the programmes on healthcare cost and the published results have been inconsistent. With…
Loneliness amongst Low-Socioeconomic Status Elderly Singaporeans and its Association with Perceptions of the Neighbourhood Environment

This can result in care fragmentation, duplication of efforts, increased healthcare cost, long waiting times, and delayed …
Understanding the psychosocial, behavioural and environmental factors behind frequent hospital admissions
