The two companies will work together to build a comprehensive diabetes patient management platform that includes services such as disease management,disease education and patient support programs to enrich patients' knowledge of chronic disease management and to better help diabetic patients to self-manage from home.

As the first multinational pharmaceutical company to join the platform,Lilly China will leverage its expertise in the field of diabetes management and will also offer a variety of patient management and support programs,including "Lilly Connected Care Program" and Patient Benefit Program,to eligible diabetes patients,with the aim of providing personalized disease education and health management services. In addition,with its deep experience in the diabetes field,Lilly China will help to develop a directory of disease education resources to help patients understand risk factors,signs and symptoms,and treatment options.

Commenting on Lilly's collaboration with 111,President and General Manager of Lilly China,Mr. Julio Gay-Ger,said,"The internet + healthcaremodel has increasingly gained recognition from the Chinese government,and Lilly China is actively exploring innovative business models in collaboration with a number of third-party platforms,including internet hospitals. Joining 111's diabetes patient platform is an opportunity for Lilly China to conduct disease management and education through online hospitals,and also improve access to Lilly China's various patient support and benefit programs for diabetic patients."

"China has over 100 million diabetic patients,and it is crucial to help this large group of patients to manage their health effectively," said Dr. Yu Gang,Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of 111. "As a technology enabler of the pharmaceutical health ecosystem,111 looks forward to working with Lilly China to leverage resources and core competence in each of our respective fields,and explore an efficient management model of diabetes. This collaboration aims to deliver better care and medical outcomes for patients with chronic diseases by developing an integrated digital health management platform. Our ambition is to leverage on technology to overcome the constraints of time and location to provide greater convenience for both patients and physicians," Dr. Yu Gang noted. "Through our platform,we hope to provide patients with better access to information on diet,exercise,and medication specifically tailored to their individual needs,as well as a personalized management and treatment program that could help improve their own health.
