today announced their strategic cooperation. The
three parties will make full use
of their respective advantages and resources to jointly build an
online and
offline family doctor services network and
realize the
shared vision of “providing each family with a trusted family doctor”. This cooperation also aims to help the government to achieve the goal of promoting and developing family doctor services across China.

 

According to the strategic cooperation agreement, Ping An

various aspects, such as
improving the

online and
offline doctors, perfecting the

of online and offline medical services, expanding the
offline clinic network, optimizing and improving the “GOLD Training Plan” to provide better, more personalized and
efficient services for both
doctors and
users.

 

In terms of improving the medical service capacity and capability, UMP will
provide training to the
Ping An
Good Doctor medical team
under the
General Practice Oriented Learning and Development Training Program (“GOLD Training Programme”), further improving the
consultation skills and clinical technology of
doctors, and
providing a large number of online users with medical health consultation services which are of higher quality and in line with international standards. In the future, doctors who have been through the medical training and passed the “GOLD Training Program” will be able to provide efficient and high-quality telemedicine consultation services on the platform to meet the growing demand of online consultations.

 

In the meantime, Ping
An Good
Doctor and
UMP will
improve the
closed loop
of online and offline medical services through the
sharing of
medical resources. Ping An
Good Doctor is a leading one-stop healthcare ecosystem platform in China, while UMP has a network
of more than 600 family doctors/general practitioners clinics across China. The two parties will jointly provide users with high quality online and offline medical services.

 

In the future, online users of
Ping An
Good Doctor will be
able to
enjoy quality face-to-face offline primary care
services through UMP’s owned and managed clinics (including public community health centers) located across Beijing, Shanghai and the
Greater Bay
Area (including Hong Kong); Ping An
Good Doctor’s global leading mobile medical technology will
also enable users of
UMP’s offline medical centers and clinics to manage their health and booking before the
consultation and
also engage such users for follow up after the consultation through their mobile phone, helping all
three parties to expand and engage more new
online and
offline users.

 

In terms of expanding the network of offline clinics, Ping
An Good
Doctor and
UMP will
work closely with various regional governments to establish more high
quality clinics and service locations across the country, providing users with online and offline integrated medical services. At
present, the
Greater Bay
Area and
other regions are introducing new technologies with a positive and open attitude, with the aim of improving the capacity and capability level of primary health services. According to the “Guangdong
Provincial Action Plan to Promote
‘Internet +’ Medical Health (2018-2020)”, by 2020, the top three hospitals in Guangdong will fully utilize “Internet

+” medical services, and medical health artificial intelligence (AI)
technology will
cover county-level hospitals, township hospitals and
community health service centers.

 

In the long-term, the
three parties will make full use
of their advantages and
further optimize and improve the “GOLD Training Programme”, as well
as to
provide online and offline comprehensive consultation and clinical services. Ping
An Good
Doctor has
the world’s leading mobile medical technology and AI

rich experience in family doctor services, and the

Dr. Sun Yiu Kwong, Chairman and CEO of UMP, stated, “UMP is
always acting in line
with the
national policy of developing more general practitioners and
patient triage through primary care. UMP
does so
by providing the GOLD Training Programme to family doctors who
are practicing in public community health centers, improving the clinical skills of
these family doctors and
empowering them to better implement the
government’s policies of contracting a
dedicated family doctor for each citizen or family. UMP has been very active in setting up public-private partnership community health centers, thereby expanding its geographical reach of clinics and also clinical service capabilities. The cooperation with Ping An Good Doctor and Zheng He brings the three parties together, allowing each party to share their resources, needs and benefits with each other.
