Healthcare and insurance digital service expansions

Overview

Recent developments in the healthcare sector show a trend toward digital integration and strategic partnerships to improve service access.

In the Philippines, MediCard Philippines and The Medical City have partnered to combine HMO solutions with a nationwide hospital network. This initiative focuses on digital innovation, including the MedGo mobile app for benefit navigation and a Mental Health Wellbeing Support platform, alongside the Livewell program for preventive care.

In Hong Kong, Prudential Hong Kong has collaborated with InsurTech startup MediConCen and Mastercard to enhance its Medical Expenses Direct Billing Service. This partnership integrates medical appointment booking and expense pre-authorisation with B2B payments via Mastercard virtual cards. The service, which includes Chiron Medical Group as an initial provider, aims to allow customers to settle approved medical costs without upfront payments.
