Germany-based Zeiss Group, a leader in optical systems and optoelectronic product manufacturing, has entered into a partnership with China’s Healthcare Cloud, an online health services provider, during the recent China International Import Expo (CIIE) meeting. The collaboration aims to enhance ophthalmic services in China by leveraging the strengths of both companies.
Online Doctor-Patient Connectivity Program
The partnership between Zeiss and Healthcare Cloud has already resulted in the launch of an online doctor-patient connectivity program. This initiative is particularly focused on bolstering the capabilities of grassroots medical facilities in China, ensuring that eye care services are more accessible and efficient.
Policy Support and National Eye Health Plan
Zeiss and Healthcare Cloud are strategically positioning themselves to capitalize on the policy support for improved eye disease screening in China. This is in line with the national eye health plan that was incorporated within the 14th Five-Year Plan period, as released by the National Health Commission last year. The plan emphasizes the importance of early detection and treatment of eye diseases, which the partnership aims to support through advanced screening and diagnostic technologies.- Flcube.com
