Siloam Hospitals Group and Philips to boost AI in Indonesian healthcare

The partnership focuses on capacity building, knowledge sharing, and implementing AI solutions.

Siloam Hospitals Group and Royal Philips have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to advance AI capabilities and development in Indonesia’s healthcare sector. 

As part of the collaboration, Philips will implement AI technologies in Siloam Hospitals, particularly in medical fields such as radiology, pathology, and (interventional) cardiology. 

Building on this, Siloam Hospitals will integrate AI into its healthcare management systems, such as telemedicine, electronic medical records, and remote patient monitoring. 

The MoU will also focus on the development of local expertise in AI and digital health through collaboration with the Universitas Pelita Harapan (UPH) Medical Sciences Group. This includes training programmes for healthcare professionals, IT specialists and UPH students.

The partnership aligns with the government’s strategy to improve healthcare accessibility, enhance clinical outcomes, and embrace digital transformation.
