The purpose is to jointly develop a health management service model based on residential spaces and to conduct collaborative research on related technologies and operational systems.
The two organizations will collaborate on the joint research and development of healthcare services and platforms based on residential spaces. They also plan to carry out a proof-of-concept (PoC) for artificial intelligence-enabled healthcare by linking lifestyle data and health data. Enhancing health management service scenarios and operational models for residents is also part of the cooperation.
Furthermore, they plan to integrate and analyze residents' lifestyle and health data using artificial intelligence to gradually implement management services tailored to each individual's health status and lifestyle patterns. The initiative will be validated using various types of lifestyle data, such as sleep, exercise, nutrition, and daily habits, with the objective of expanding the scope of service application.
Bundang Seoul National University Hospital will be responsible for medical consulting and clinical verification. The hospital will review the medical appropriateness of the healthcare services and establish health measurement standards and effectiveness verification systems. Through this, the aim is to ensure that services provided in residential spaces meet medical standards.
Song Junghan, Director of Bundang Seoul National University Hospital, stated, "This will serve as an opportunity to extend medical services to the home, which is the daily living space of patients," and added, "Through clinical consulting and medical validation, we will enhance the reliability of residential-based healthcare services."
