China’s well-funded healthcare technology segment looks set to expand with greater vigour in the wake of Covid-19. The pandemic has led to a spike in demand for online pharmacy and telemedicine services, both expected to make up an online healthcare market worth 200 billion yuan in 2020. Another technology that promises to reduce the strain on medical resources is AI, which is a critical priority in view of the country’s shortfall in medical talent. As a leader in healthtech, Alibaba Health’s wide-ranging business portfolio covers many prominent healthtech categories, from e-commerce to telemedicine and healthcare AI.
