KUALA LUMPUR: Indonesia-based Prixa has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Selgate Healthcare to accommodate patients from both countries to consult remotely with doctors from both countries.
With the signing of the MoU, Prixa is pioneering a full scope international medical experience for corporations and individuals that are seamless and accessible, via teleconsultation and on-site medical services internationally.
Both parties said patients can also reciprocally refer to either Selgate's healthcare provider network in Malaysia or Prixa's healthcare provider network in Indonesia.
Chief operating officer Handry Mulyo said the collaboration served to accomplish Prixa's vision to transform an individual's medical experience that is more patient centric, simple to access and affordable while maintaining the highest standard of care.
"We envision our collaboration with Selgate as an integrated healthcare solution that provides international accessibility for patients.
"With this collaboration, Prixa will manage patients' travel for their medical care, from departure to return, so patients no longer need to worry about searching for accommodation or finding the right doctor," he said in a statement.
Prixa and Selgate will also provide patients with a complete package of treatment experiences.
Prixa will facilitate patients from Indonesia who require medical treatment in Malaysia with air tickets, accommodation and any necessary doctor appointments and medical treatment.
Selgate Healthcare executive director Noor Hisham Mohd Ghouth said the collaboration was expected to expand its network and health services beyond Malaysia into other Southeast Asia regions.
"We also hope that this partnership will lead to the extension of other services with Prixa for other Selgate's subsidiaries," he said.
