Prudential ties up with telemedicine firm MyDoc to launch digital health app

Pulse will provide health tools and consultations for 11 markets in Asia.

Insurer Prudential Corporation Asia has forged a partnership with telemedicine provider MyDoc to launch Pulse, a digital health application in 11 markets in Asia.

According to a press release, the app will integrate MyDoc's services, offering self-help health and wellness tools, a symptom checker powered by AI, as well as video consultation with a doctor and an option to book a face-to-face appointment.

The selected panel of doctors were all required to have at least three years of private practice experience and clinical and product training, and must pass test consultations.

Some markets may also offer electronic prescriptions, medical certificates and records, and medicine delivery as additional service.

The app will be supported by partners including symptom checker and health assessment provider Babylon Health, digital wellness services Tictrac, digital healthcare platform Halodoc, online medical clinic DoctorOnCall, dengue tracker AIME, and e-wallet Boost.

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.
