Daedong Hospital Introduces Advanced Medical Care in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia... Conducts Medical Consultation Session

Daedong Hospital recently opened a telemedicine clinic within the Railway Authority Hospital located in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, and held a promotional and medical consultation event for advanced medical technology from Busan.

This activity was conducted as part of the projects ‘2023 Busan ICT-based Foreign Patient Attraction Remote Consultation Service Establishment Project’ and ‘2023 Mongolia Ulaanbaatar Busan Advanced Medical Technology and Medical Consultation Event,’ which were selected in the first half of this year by Busan City and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency.

The delegation of 50 participants, including the Busan Economic Promotion Agency, Daedong Hospital, Busan National University Hospital, Kosin University Gospel Hospital, Dongnam Regional Radiation Hospital, Haeundae Paik Hospital, and Lineup Dental Clinic, departed for Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia on the 5th.

From Daedong Hospital, Kim Young-jun, Director of the International Medical Center (Orthopedic Specialist), Park Sang-hee, Head of External Cooperation Team, Shin Jun-han, International Medical Center Coordinator, and Lee Soo-jung, Mongolian Interpreter, participated.

Participants at the opening ceremony of the remote clinic are taking a group commemorative photo.

As the first schedule, they visited the National Trauma Center and Sukhbaatar District Health Center to introduce each other and hold meetings on medical technology exchange. In the afternoon, they hosted a Patient Night event at The Corporate Hotel and Convention Center, providing an opportunity to promote Busan’s advanced medical technology, and spent time communicating with patients from each medical institution and having dinner together.

Daedong Hospital invited 12 patients with whom they have a close relationship through medical volunteer work. Otgonram, a Mongolian girl who formed a bond through charitable medical care conducted in 2017 with Busan City and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency, also attended and shared the joy of reunion.

Otgonram had lived with her wrist bent in an ‘L’ shape after a fall accident in the first grade of elementary school, as she was unable to receive proper surgery for her broken wrist. After receiving surgery at Daedong Hospital through charitable medical care, she is now nurturing her dream of becoming a doctor.

Additionally, on the 7th, Daedong Hospital installed the necessary hardware and software for telemedicine at the Mongolian Railway Authority Hospital and opened a telemedicine center, where Kim Young-jun, Director of the International Medical Center, held a medical consultation session for Mongolian patients.

During the five-day stay, activities continued including B2B business meetings attended by Mongolian members of parliament, the mayor of Erdenet City, the Minister of Ports, and the head of the Ministry of Health headquarters, networking with key Mongolian VIPs, a dinner party, and a medical consultation session at the Johnmurd-gun Health Center.

Kim Young-jun, Director of the International Medical Center, said, “It was meaningful to be part of a vibrant field where we could actively communicate and exchange with local Mongolian officials together with excellent medical institutions from Busan,” and added, “We will continue to devote efforts to cooperation to widely promote Busan’s outstanding medical technology.”
