Capitalising on Technology and Digitalisation for Enhanced Patient Care

With the healthcare IT market expected to experience substantial growth, with a projected CAGR of 15.8% from 2024 and an anticipated value of USD 1,834.3 billion by 2030 as reported by Grand View Research, Medicana Health Group is at the forefront of this trend through strategic IT investments and the digitalisation of its services.

Dedication to Environmental Sustainability and SDG 3

“Digital transformation facilitates quicker, more targeted, and cost-effective patient outcomes, significantly contributing to the betterment of society and aligning with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG 3), which focuses on ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being at all ages. In tandem with these efforts, our commitment to environmental sustainability, evident in our adoption of eco-friendly practices across our operations—from utilising green energy like wind and solar to implementing paperless hospital systems—further underscores the belief that a healthy planet is foundational to sustaining healthy populations,” commented Reha Özkaya, a Member of the Board at Medicana Health Group.

Value-Based Care at the Forefront of Patient Experience
