Providing one-stop medical health management services to corporate employees
More than a month ago,Mr. Song working in Hangzhou,needed hospital treatment for his thigh ligament injury. Since his company Greentown Groupjoined the well-managed medical insurance plan of Ping An Good Doctor,Ping An Good Doctor quickly accepted his needs and provided him with accurate medical guidance services. To treat his injuries,Ping An Good Doctor arranged for Mr. Song to enter the green passage of the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine,which is a well-known First-Class Hospital at Grade III in Hangzhou. The Company helped him gain a precise diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner with the services of reputed doctors in relevant departments.
The one-stop medical healthcare management service with coverage of online medical treatment,triage and referral,hospitalization,etc,is one of the characteristics of Ping An Good Doctor's Enterprise Management Medical Insurance Plan. The "Online Clinic",which is supported by a full-time medical team of Ping An Good Doctor and the "AI Doctor",can provide 24/7 medical consultation services,to quickly judge employees' medical needs. If online medical treatment shows that there is no need for the person to go to the hospital,the employee can purchase medicine directly through Ping An Good Doctor,and get a one-hour fast delivery service from offline cooperative pharmacies. The whole consultation process is convenient and quick,which greatly enhances the medical experience.

Aiming at the Corporate Healthcare Market Worth Trillions of RMB
According to the Outline of the Plan for Healthy China 2030,the total size of the healthcare servicing industry will reach RMB8 trillion in 2020,and RMB16 trillion in 2030. Based on these figures,it is expected that the market size of healthcare management of Chinese enterprises will reach RMB2.4 trillion in 2020,and reach RMB4.8 trillion in 2030.
In fact,many problems in the domestic corporate healthcare management market still need to be solved. The out-patient departments of domestic hospitals have low efficiencies and are frequently criticized for the fact that patients have to line up for three hours to see a doctor for just three minutes. As a result,corporate employees are facing the problem of low efficiency when they visit doctors. At the same time,domestic medical institutions lack the function of healthcare management and thus cannot provide relevant services for the employees who are in the sub-healthy condition,which will affect their work efficiency. Enterprises in China are paying more and more attention toemployees' healthcare management and services,yet the resources and investments are insufficient in this area. Enterprises and employees are both exploring the most sensible solution for their own good.
The huge demands and the long-standing difficulties of the healthcare market give Ping An Good Doctor,a company with an established one-stop healthcare ecosystem,great opportunities in this emerging market. By launching the corporate-managed medical insurance plan,Ping An Good Doctor is able to enter the market quickly and establish partnerships with numerous large reputable companies.
Unlike companies in the market that only provide one kind of service,Ping An Good Doctor's corporate-managed medical insurance plan covers a full range of services for employees,such as medical examinations,daily health management,inquiries,medical services and medicine purchases. The plan has created a one-stop medical health management service and has become one of the most popular employee benefit programs for corporate HR.
Ms. Bai Xue,Chief Operating Officer of Ping An Good Doctor,said: "We not only care for the corporate employees' health,but also focus on spreading the idea of a healthy life to each employee and every company. We hope to raise their awareness of managing their own health and adopting a healthy lifestyle."
