Enhancing Patient Care and Treatment Coordination
Under the partnership, Bumrungrad’s specialists will visit Phnom Penh regularly to provide expert consultations and treatment plans at Intercare Hospital. Patients requiring advanced procedures will benefit from a streamlined referral process to Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok, ensuring pre-arranged treatment plans and a smooth transition between facilities.
“Our goal is to complement the care already available, ensuring patients receive continuous and comprehensive treatment,” said Rajeev Rajan, Chief Business Development Officer at Bumrungrad International Hospital. The collaboration will also support enhanced chronic disease management, with personalized care plans designed to improve long-term health outcomes for patients in Cambodia.
