SAUDI ARABIA — Johns Hopkins Aramco Healthcare (JHAH), a leading healthcare organization in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has teamed up with TruDoc Healthcare to elevate patient care by expanding the Care Anywhere program.
This collaboration combines TruDoc’s expertise in hospital-at-home and Telehealth services with JHAH’s longstanding commitment to medical excellence, marking a significant step forward in providing patient-centric healthcare across the Kingdom.
The partnership ushers in a new era of healthcare delivery by offering JHAH patients access to integrated digital consultations and at-home medical services.
This initiative aims to simplify healthcare access by enabling patients to receive high-quality medical care in the comfort of their own homes, removing traditional barriers like travel and long wait times.
Dr. Michael Walsh, CEO of JHAH, emphasized the importance of this initiative, describing it as a pivotal moment in their mission to innovate and personalize healthcare.
According to Dr. Walsh, JHAH’s expanded telehealth services, which were launched in 2023, now offer 24/7 primary care, seamlessly integrating healthcare into patients’ daily lives.
He also noted that this development allows patients to transition smoothly from hospital to home, while still maintaining continuous access to exceptional medical care.
This initiative, Dr. Walsh highlighted, underscores JHAH’s commitment to delivering the highest standards of medical care right at the patient’s doorstep, supported by a dedicated team of professionals and state-of-the-art technology.
TruDoc Healthcare, with over a decade of experience in the UAE, brings its well-established telehealth, remote patient monitoring, and homecare expertise to the partnership.
Central to TruDoc’s offering is a doctor-led Command Centre, which provides live patient monitoring and personalized care around the clock.
By leveraging JHAH’s extensive medical expertise and TruDoc’s patient-first approach, patients in Saudi Arabia can now access premium healthcare services from home.
Asad Khan, CEO of TruDoc Healthcare Saudi Arabia, shared that TruDoc’s vision is to transform traditional healthcare models by introducing a sophisticated, patient-centric approach.
He emphasised that their collaboration with JHAH exemplifies this vision, providing patients with Hospital at Home and Telemedicine services that ensure round-the-clock access to hospital-level care and primary healthcare.
Khan further noted that this strategy offers a comprehensive range of health solutions, including routine wellness, mental health support, and urgent care consultations, all delivered with the precision and empathy for which JHAH and TruDoc are known.
The collaboration also enables the deployment of a hybrid model of hospital-at-home services, featuring advanced telemonitoring capabilities.
This ensures that patients receive continuous, high-quality care delivered within the home setting with hospital-level precision.
The expansion of Telemedicine services now offers 24/7 access, combining convenience with concierge-style care.
Patients can access this premium service through referrals from their specialist doctors, facilitating early discharge and continued hospital-level care at home.
Initially set to provide 8,000 bed days annually, the program is designed to serve thousands of patients, with plans to expand into various specialities, including infectious diseases, cardiology, geriatric care, and long-term care (LTC) patients.
