[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] Mediplus Solution, a mobile healthcare solution company under Hyundai Heavy Industries Group (Hyundai Heavy Industries Holdings), announced on the 30th that it will expand its healthcare business based on wearable devices in collaboration with Samsung Electronics. To this end, Mediplus Solution recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Samsung Electronics for mutual cooperation in wearable-based patient health management and rehabilitation business.


Through this MOU, the two companies plan to link Mediplus Solution's mobile health management services, 'Second Doctor' and 'Second Wind,' with devices such as the Galaxy Watch to offer more sophisticated and personalized healthcare services.
