WeDoctor Greater Bay Area platform unveils China's first provincial-level internet hospital
The platform will provide online and offline healthcare services for women and children.
Healthcare services We Doctor Holdings (WeDoctor) and Guangdong Women and Children’s Hospital launched China’s first provincial-level internet hospital for women and children in Guangzhou in an effort to establish a healthcare service geared specifically for women and children.
The healthcare service base will be supported by the internet hospital to provide innovative healthcare services br bringing together Guangdong Women and Children’s Hospital’s medical resources and WeDoctor’s technological and operational capabilities.
“The healthcare service base will leverage the Guangdong Women and Children’s Hospital and Health Institute’s strength in resources to become the healthcare service hub for women and children in the Greater Bay Area and a centre for the collaboration of women and children organisations,” WeDoctor chairman and CEO Jerry Liao said.
According to the firm, the new service base will become a major breakthrough in primary care and will help to promote quality development of the women and children healthcare industry across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau thanks to its use of artificial intelligence, big data and the Internet of Things (IoT).
“Going forward, we will further encourage the 142 women and children healthcare organisations across the Guangdong province to join the internet hospital, in order to provide comprehensive online and offline healthcare services to women and children,” Huang Han-Lin, director of the Guangdong Women and Children’s Hospital and Health Institute, said.
The Guangdong Province Internet Hospital for Women and Children is part of WeDoctor’s Greater Bay Area Healthcare Platform which was launched in early November in a bid to provide a healthcare ecosystem in the Greater Bay Area which encompasses cities like Hong Kong, Macau and Guangdong.
