2019 marked the tenth anniversary of the launch of China’s “New Healthcare Reform” plan. Over the past decade, healthcare reform has impacted nearly the entire industry, with internet healthcare playing a significant role in accelerating industrial transformation. To meet diverse health needs, the State Council and the National Health Commission have introduced multiple favorable policies, vigorously promoting tiered diagnosis and treatment and encouraging private capital investment in healthcare services.

Fang Weihao, Co-Chairman and CEO of Ping An Health Insurance Technology, Chairman and CEO of Ping An International Financial Leasing Co., Ltd., and Chairman of Ping An Haoyi Investment Management Co., Ltd., stated in his address at the main forum that Ping An Group is committed to becoming an internationally leading technology-driven personal financial lifestyle services group.

As an innovator in the broader healthcare industry, Ping An Healthcare (Testing) Center pioneered a “trinity” innovative medical service model in China, integrating imaging diagnosis, clinical laboratory testing, and precision health screenings. Leveraging cutting-edge scientific achievements and forward-looking development concepts, it has explored diversified business models and now operates a comprehensive portfolio encompassing self-built facilities, co-constructed centers, franchised outlets, mobile services, managed operations, and smart imaging solutions. Additionally, it established a joint venture clinical laboratory with Japan’s SRL, the top-ranked medical laboratory testing company in Asia, embracing an open mindset to share resources, co-create value, and achieve win-win outcomes with outstanding partners.

Looking ahead to the next decade, the new healthcare reform will place greater emphasis on holistic health. Third-party medical service providers, exemplified by Ping An Healthcare (Diagnostic) Centers, will continue to seize opportunities and drive innovation, leading the industry toward more dynamic, robust, and sustainable development.

As health demands evolve, how can third-party medical service providers more effectively empower hospitals and drive the optimization of medical resources? At the thematic seminar “Moving Forward in Medicine, Winning Together: The Synergistic Development of Third-Party Medical Services and Hospitals,” hosted by Ping An Healthcare (Testing) Center, experts from across China gathered for an exchange of ideas.

In her address, Xing Liping, CEO of Ping An Haoyi Investment Management Co., Ltd., stated that the original mission behind establishing the Ping An Healthcare (Diagnostic) Center was to develop third-party medical services and address industry pain points for large public hospitals and primary healthcare institutions.

At the Ping An booth, attendees gained in-depth insights into Ping An Medical and Healthcare Technology’s business layout, the innovative business model of Ping An Health (Testing) Centers, and its diversified professional financial and medical solutions. Empowering healthcare with technology, Ping An Health (Testing) Centers enhance diagnostic quality and patient experience through convenient mobile services, facial recognition, and AI-powered intelligent image interpretation technology jointly developed with Ping An Smart Healthcare. The company has independently developed intelligent imaging cloud platforms such as “Ping An Good Imaging” and “Ping An Good Laboratory,” connecting online and offline resources to promote tiered diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, it has created iNexus, a cloud-based intelligent health management platform, providing precise, efficient, and affordable one-stop services.

The exhibition site also featured a VR real-scene experience of the “Mobile Health Screening Vehicle.” Since participating in Ping An Group’s “Three Villages Project” for village doctors in 2018, Ping An Healthcare (Screening) Centers have leveraged the model of “Mobile Health Screening Vehicles + Renowned Physician Outreach Clinics,” bringing together authoritative medical teams and cutting-edge diagnostic equipment. By harnessing the power of technology, they have delivered high-quality health screening services to residents in impoverished areas. To date, their outreach has spanned nine provinces and municipalities, including Guangxi, Jiangxi, Hubei, Chongqing, and Shandong, providing over 500 free clinic sessions and serving nearly 90,000 impoverished villagers. Additionally, actively responding to the major Belt and Road Initiative, they have formed international volunteer teams to conduct overseas screening services for congenital heart disease and cardiovascular conditions in children.

It is precisely due to its outstanding contributions in areas such as implementing targeted poverty alleviation and leveraging technology to empower public welfare that Ping An Healthcare (Testing) Center was honored with the “Social Responsibility Award for Meritorious Units in China’s Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Enterprises – Commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Republic of China” at this conference.

In addition, the Xiamen Ping An Healthcare (Diagnostic) Center is poised for its grand opening. It will further optimize the regional healthcare landscape and enhance local medical service capacity and quality, enabling more people to access world-class healthcare services right in their communities.

As a key participant and driver in the development of China’s healthcare sector, Ping An Healthcare (Testing) Center will continue to collaborate with leading industry partners to embrace future transformations, empower primary healthcare institutions, and make every effort to safeguard public health.
