JAKARTA - The hospital company belonging to the conglomerate Mochtar Riady, PT Siloam International Hospitals Tbk (SILO), which is a subsidiary of PT Lippo Karawaci Tbk (LPKR) in the health sector, has also spurred digitalization through Prixa.ai in order to support the growth of the company's performance.

Following digital expansion through the MySiloam app, SILO has made a strategic investment in Prixa.ai, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) medical assistance platform that applies diagnostic technology. Prixa.ai's health services in one platform include patient symptom checks, doctor consultation via chat, pharmacy delivery, and lab tests.

Not only is it used to simplify the patient referral process, this technology can be a valuable tool to assist doctors in making accurate and efficient diagnoses. This technology can also provide precise information by processing large amounts of data and can find patterns that may not be obvious from human observation.

President Commissioner of Siloam Hospitals who is also CEO of LPKR John Riady said that Lippo Karawaci through SILO is committed to continuing to develop the healthcare industry in Indonesia and encourage digital transformation which also plays an important role in the growth of the company's performance.

"The health industry is an important industry or sector that needs to be developed in Indonesia. Moreover, the economy is expected to grow and the need for health facilities will increase," said Mochtar Riady's grandson in a written statement, Thursday, March 24.

John added that technology such as AI will play an important role in health services in the future as well as helping governments, hospitals, insurance organizations to provide high-quality and efficient health services.

The digital expansion that drives the growth of SILO's performance certainly has a positive impact on LPKR as the parent company. LPKR is the main shareholder of SILO with 55.4 percent ownership.
