Malaysian telco CelcomDigi announced on Saturday it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with AmBank and AmBank Islamic to deliver affordable digital healthcare solutions to medical providers over the next three years.

Under the MoU, CelcomDigi and AmBank aim to provide healthcare institutions with AI-powered digital tools and services designed to improve patient care and healthcare delivery.

CelcomDigi will provide the connectivity for the solutions, while AmBank’s role includes financial services, including specialised medical financing, loans, insurance, and payment solutions, to make the solutions more affordable for healthcare providers.

Solutions to be offered include smart medical assistance solutions such as a smart health kiosk that monitors and records vital health metrics and a platform to connect users with healthcare professionals.

Then there’s Medi-Scan, a software-based biometric health scan technology that uses AI and computer vision to assess various health indicators from a person’s face, voice, and body movements. This solution also enables remote health assessments, as well as continuous monitoring of patients, which Jamie Ling, group CEO of AmBank Group, said will improve healthcare access, particularly in underserved areas.

“The integration of telecommunications and digital infrastructure is essential for expanding access to quality medical services, particularly in underserved areas,” Ling said in a joint statement.

CelcomDigi and AmBank also plan to offer “Holomedicine”, a medical education training tool that leverages mixed reality and AI.

CelcomDigi CEO Idham Nawawi said the partnership aligns with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission’s (“MCMC”) initiative to elevate Malaysia’s healthcare system to a global standard, and establish the foundation for “a more connected, inclusive, and secure healthcare ecosystem” that supports predictive, preventive, and precision treatments, enhancing diagnostics, tailoring care to individual needs, and improving clinical outcomes.

“By integrating our connectivity technology with digital healthcare solutions, we are making medical services more accessible to Malaysians, ensuring that more people have the opportunity to receive the quality care they deserve,” he said.
