KUALA LUMPUR: UMediC Group Bhd has made its foray into medical services, a segment of medical healthcare it says is synergistic in nature to its existing business offerings.

The company, which markets and distributes medical devices as well as manufactures its own range of medical consummables, said the new business segment will leverage its scale and active presence among hospitals and local healthcare providers.

The medical services segment will offer services such as a care centre providing post-recovery care, ambulance solutions offering the complete infrastructure equipped with the latest medical devices onboard as well as establishing a learning centre providing training workshops to help raise public awareness on medical healthcare and provide medical training to medical professionals.

"“With the launch of our medical services, we are transforming our business by delivering a comprehensive spectrum of healthcare solutions aimed at addressing the gap and pain point among local healthcare providers such as the lack of capacity to cater for all patients given that there are only so many beds available," said executive director and CEO Lim Taw Seong in a statement.

"Aside from that, the ambulance service is also a key area that we have identified as a strong growth area for us given that we can cross sell to hospitals as a complete solutions offering equipped with our latest offerings under our marketing and distributions arm."
