SHANGHAI, Sept. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's leading online healthcare ecosystem platform, Ping An Healthcare and Technology Company Limited ("Ping An Good Doctor"; stock code: 01833.HK) entered into a strategic cooperation agreement (the "Agreement") with China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Guangxi Committee, joining forces with the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (the "Autonomous Region Government") to usher in a new era of "Internet + Healthcare" and establish the ethnically unique healthcare service industry example in Guangxi.

Each One-minute Clinic comprises an "Independent Diagnosis Room" and an "Intelligent Medicine Cabinet" in which more than 100 types of common OTC drugs are stored at low temperatures, enabling patients to seek 24/7 medical and health consultation, health management and drug purchase services anytime and anywhere. In the future, One-minute Clinic will be installed at enterprises, large communities, chain pharmacies, highway service points, university campus, entrance and exit of subway and high-speed railway stations and other public places across Guangxi.

Secondly, under the great support of the Autonomous Region Government and the relevant authorities, Ping An Good Doctor will build ethnically unique and high-quality Internet-based physical hospitals in Guangxi, contribute and share the experience of Internet hospital operation, and cooperate with local physical hospitals in Guangxi to build "new Internet hospitals", aiming to provide people with online healthcare services encompassing online consultation, electronic prescription circulation and online health management.

The State Council granted the approval for the establishment of China (Guangxi) Free Trade Pilot Zone in August 2019. As the only province in China that borders the ASEAN with both land and sea lanes, Guangxi has placed tremendous effort to develop the six major industries with the healthcare service as the primary sector of development and attract business investment.
