Gangnam Center is favorably evaluated for leading the trend with futuritic health care service, using ICT and health check services focusing on beneficiaries. Gangnam Center accurately diagnoses the health status of customers on the basis of ▲distinguished medical practitioners, ▲high-tech medical equipment and ▲ accumulated big data, and manages identified risk factors.

Gangnam Center drew attention by implementing the smart health check system without charts, tags, or papers for the first time as a single medical center in 2019. Gangnam Center enabled each individual to fill out a health check list and read the health check results using a mobile device using the App ‘Health Pilot’ . ‘Health Pilot’ will add the convenient functions, including mobile payment and e-prescriptions. It will be ultimately developed as the digital health care platform, continuously helping to check health and prevent diseases by collecting and analyzing life log data (records of the daily life of individuals).

Gangnam Center was also highlighted for designing ‘My own health check program’, the only program considering the medical history of an individual and his/her family and reducing ineffective and meaningless medical checks. A custom medical check program is produced by reflecting the medical guideline to ▲medical check items recommended by the doctor, ▲ medical check on new symptoms, and individual needs.
