“With the opening of its third and largest hospital, Columbia China aims to deliver the highest level of healthcare quality, service and patient experience to the 5.5m population in Jiaxing,” said Bee Lan Tan, President & Group CEO of Columbia China. “The successful opening of the hospital during the pandemic period would not have been possible without the commitment and efficiency of the Jiaxing government and the support of the government officials at Jiaxing Economic and Technological Development Zone. Columbia China remains dedicated to bringing more international medical and management talent and resources to Jiaxing, so that the needs of the local population can be well served.”
As one of the key projects of Jiaxing’s “100 Years 100 Projects”, the official opening of Kaiyi Hospital will contribute improvements to Jiaxing’s healthcare services landscape and enable the people in Jiaxing and its surrounding areas to experience cost-effective and international standard healthcare services without having to leave Jiaxing.
At the launch ceremony, Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital and Zhejiang Tongji College signed a Memorandum of Understanding to work together on personnel training, scientific research and innovation, and to build a platform for integrating learning, practice and research.
Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital and Jiaxing Taiwan Investing Entrepreneurs Association also signed a contract to create a more accessible, seamless, and comfortable medical environment for Taiwanese living and working in Jiaxing.
As part of Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital’s corporate social responsibility, it also donated 100,000 RMB to Zhejiang Foundation for Disabled Persons to support the major medical insurance program for people with disabilities. This will help to reduce the medical burden of patients with major illnesses and their families.
Cao Haoqiang, President of Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital, said that “Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital has attracted much attention from the public since its soft opening on May 20, 2023. During the soft opening, the hospital’s systems, facilities, services and processes were systematically tested and the medical staff of each department were trained to provide the best service to our patients.”
Through the feedback received from the soft opening, we have set up the “Famous Physicians Center”, aiming to bring the best doctors in China to provide top quality care to the people of Jiaxing.
Along with the official launch, Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital also officially unveiled the set-up of the “Shanghai Famous Orthopedic Physicians’ Jiaxing Kaiyi Center”, in cooperation with several famous tertiary hospitals and orthopedic hospitals in Shanghai. Jiaxing Kaiyi Hospital aims to provide expert consultations by Shanghai doctors at Jiaxing’s “doorstep”.
