Siloam President Director Darjoto Setyawan said that Siloam is proud to stand side by side with the government, business community, and all Siloam employees to fight COVID-19 together.
"We ensure that no costs are reduced to keep all our employees and patients safe and continue to provide health services even when the pandemic is peaking. With the decline in COVID-19 cases, Siloam recorded an increase in the base case business," explained Darjoto.
On the other hand, Siloam continues to develop a mobile application called MySiloam. This application continues to improve efficiency and improve patient experience with online services that complement offline services at Siloam hospitals.
Patients can use the MySiloam app as a virtual assistant when they visit Siloam hospitals. This feature simplifies the patient journey by enabling contactless check-in and virtual queues, enhancing the patient experience.
Siloam's management believes that technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) will play an important role in healthcare in the future. This technology can provide precise information by processing large amounts of data and can find patterns that may not be obvious from human observation.
AI technology can be used to simplify the patient referral process and become an important tool to assist doctors in making diagnoses with high accuracy and efficiency. SILO is making a strategic investment in a technology platform to perform medical diagnostics with the help of Artificial Intelligence called Prixa.ai.
Siloam Hospitals currently manages and operates 40 hospitals, consisting of 14 hospitals in the Greater Jakarta area and 26 hospitals spread across the islands of Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Bali and Nusa Tenggara.
