Through its mobile app, WhiteCoat will offer access to Singapore-registered general practitioners (GPs) via video call. Doctors can then provide diagnosis, treatment, medical referrals, and delivery of medication for timely delivery of healthcare services to on-the-go clients. 

AIA and WhiteCoat will also co-create what they claim to be the first digitally integrated platform that facilitates the claim processing for telemedicine services.

"We know what it’s like to fall sick, and the last thing that you want to do is to queue for hours at a clinic. WhiteCoat puts a doctor at your fingertips instantly in the form of a video call, then delivers the medication you need straight to you," Bryan Koh, CEO and founder of WhiteCoat said in a statement.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
