Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance is partnering with Gangbuk Samsung Hospital to develop a healthcare model aimed at predicting and managing the risks of chronic diseases.
On July 18, the financial institution announced the establishment of the 'Life Care Innovation Center' in collaboration with Gangbuk Samsung Hospital during an opening ceremony held at its headquarters in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Key officials from both sides, including Samsung Fire & Marine President Lee Mun-hwa and Gangbuk Samsung Hospital Director Shin Hyun-cheol, attended the event.
This center's establishment follows a memorandum of understanding signed by both parties in March. The goal is to create healthcare services that not only provide post-treatment coverage but also prevent chronic diseases and manage them continuously.
Both organizations plan to jointly develop chronic disease management solutions centered around the center, utilizing Gangbuk Samsung Hospital's medical infrastructure for service validation and commercialization.
In particular, the center will combine Gangbuk Samsung Hospital's over 40 years of accumulated clinical data from health checkups and cohort research capabilities with Samsung Fire & Marine's experience in healthcare service operations. They aim to comprehensively analyze customers' health conditions and lifestyles to detect disease risks early and provide personalized health management services.
Lee Mun-hwa, President of Samsung Fire & Marine, stated, “We will evolve into a total life care platform that goes beyond economic protection after accidents to prevent and manage health risks for our customers.”
