Docquity, a leading healthtech company in Southeast Asia, and Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah (RSUD) Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang, a regional hospital in West Java, Indonesia, have announced a partnership to integrate Dx, Docquity’s artificial intelligence (AI)-powered medical resource platform, into the hospital’s medical reference system.
Dx, currently in ongoing development, was last year implemented as a learning tool for Sumedang’s public health staff. This marks Docquity’s second partnership aimed at strengthening healthcare knowledge and patient care in the West Java region.
Built upon Singapore-based startup Docquity’s network insights as the largest healthcare professional (HCP) community in Southeast Asia that connects 3 out of every 4 doctors, Dx securely leverages compliant Generative AI to empower RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang’s medical professionals with the latest healthcare knowledge from credible sources, for stronger treatment decisions.
The Dx platform features an integration with PubMed, a globally recognised database of peer-reviewed medical research, enabling HCPs in Sumedang to seamlessly access scientifically-backed solutions to medical cases and ensure that regional patient care aligns with the latest international medical standards.
According to Dr H. Enceng, SpB. Director of RSUD Umar Wirahadikusumah Sumedang: “The introduction of Docquity’s AI platform, Dx, into our medical reference system is expected to enhance the hospital’s ability to provide high-quality, evidence-based healthcare."
Amit Vithal, Co-Founder and Chief of Growth at Docquity, said: “We believe that data is knowledge, and greater learning opportunities and medical expertise create healthier communities. We’ve therefore been developing Dx to provide Southeast Asian doctors with real-time access to credible medical research and global best practices at their fingertips."
The implementation of AI in healthcare is aligned with Sumedang’s digital transformation agenda for public services, including healthcare.
