At the 49th IHF World Hospital Congress, IHH Healthcare North Asia shared how connected care networks, digital innovation and preventive health can reshape care delivery.
Healthcare is evolving rapidly, driven by changing patient needs, technological innovation and a growing focus on preventive care. In response, healthcare providers are looking beyond traditional hospital-based models to deliver more connected and accessible care.
Speaking at the 49th IHF World Hospital Congress, Dr Kenneth Tsang, Regional Chief Executive Officer of IHH Healthcare North Asia and Chief Executive Officer of Gleneagles Hospital Hong Kong, highlighted how integrated healthcare networks can improve patient access, coordination and continuity of care.
He shared how Gleneagles Hong Kong and Parkway Shanghai are extending community services through a network of hospitals, ambulatory care centres, primary care facilities and specialist clinics. By connecting different care settings, patients can receive more seamless support closer to home with better coordination across their care journey.
The discussion also explored the growing importance of health management and disease prevention in improving population health outcomes. Artificial intelligence was identified as a key enabler for connecting healthcare ecosystems, supporting more personalised care and extending healthcare delivery beyond clinical environments. Ensuring strong governance and building AI literacy among healthcare professionals will be essential to realising these opportunities responsibly.
As healthcare continues to transform, IHH Healthcare remains committed to driving innovation, strengthening integrated care networks and scaling successful initiatives across its markets to deliver better health outcomes.
