Zhejiang Mobile's 5G Technology Revolutionizes Rural Healthcare

China's Zhejiang Mobile has launched a pioneering healthcare initiative using its 5G network in Jingning She Autonomous County. With the "Smart Mobile Hospital + AI" model, the mountainous region's residents now access advanced medical services without lengthy travel. This initiative, highlighted at the World Health Assembly, bridges healthcare gaps in remote areas through technological innovation.

For locals like 81-year-old Liu Yuyu, healthcare access has shifted from arduous trips to seamless digital consultations. Township clinics equipped with 5G and AI tools facilitate real-time interactions with urban specialists. The service includes mobile clinics that handle diagnostics and emergency care, significantly enhancing the region's healthcare infrastructure.

The system's integration of emergency services further ensures comprehensive and coordinated patient care. This project not only improves healthcare delivery but also sets a potential precedent for similar solutions in other remote regions.
