Partnership to help improve healthcare outcomes
New York, US-based academic medical centre Mount Sinai Health System has announced an agreement with Taikang Healthcare in China to provide clinical and management knowledge transfer services, and education and training programmes for Taikang’s Xianlin Drum Tower Hospital in Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu Province in east central China. It will also provide guidance in implementing high-quality medical care delivery standards, developing clinical centres of excellence, and establishing best practices in hospital management.
“Our mission is to enable our international partners to raise the standards of healthcare delivery in their communities by leveraging Mount Sinai’s repository of medical knowledge, cutting-edge clinical innovations, and educational resources,” said Dr Arthur Klein, President of Mount Sinai Health Network. “Taikang shares this mission and is committed to improving healthcare outcomes for its patients. Taikang is an ideal partner for us in China, and we are excited to play an important and critical role in expanding innovative healthcare in this region.”
Dr Szabi Dorotovics, President of Mount Sinai International, the division of the Mount Sinai Health System responsible for global collaborations, said: “Among a vast array of domestic organisations currently involved in hospital development in China, Taikang really stands out. Taikang is focused on the health and wellness of the communities it serves and prioritising access and care excellence first. This is wholly consistent with Mount Sinai’s international goals and we are proud to partner with it to transform care for the patients they serve.”
