And what impressed me most was the service attitude of the medical staff, enthusiastic and professional, accompanying the patients throughout the examination and treatment process. Administrative procedures are simplified to the maximum, such as: Taking a queue number, patient information is updated on the common system, so the medical examination process is scientific, hospital fee payment is quick and convenient through QR code, so patients do not have to wait long. The hospital also publicly posts medical service prices, diagrams of departments and rooms for patients to easily follow; arranges a suggestion box, hotline phone, receives feedback and answers questions from people".

Ms. Hai said: “I have neck and shoulder pain and have been treated at the hospital for 7 days. Although there are many patients, the doctors and nurses here work very scientifically. I have had all the procedures done and am examined and consulted by medical staff every day. In particular, test results or X-rays are sent to personal phones so patients can easily follow up. The hospital environment is modern and friendly, patients can both receive treatment and relax while listening to music and watching TV programs; their spirits are comfortable, so they can recover their health soon.”

The hospital also applies codes to the sample collection process, helping to optimize the testing process and shorten the sample collection process.

We also do not spend as much time recording medical records as before, thereby spending more time treating and caring for patients, as well as cultivating and improving professional capacity” - Dr. Duong Thi Thuong - Head of Internal Medicine Department said.
