Given the severe strain on medical resources in&#13;<br \/>\nIndonesia, it gives rise to a plethora&#13;<br \/>\nof further healthcare issues&#13;<br \/>\nwhich threatens to cripple Indonesia&#8217;s entire healthcare system.&#13;<br \/>\nWith average waiting&#13;<br \/>\ntime in hospitals being at least 2 hours, it highlights the inefficiencies&#13;<br \/>\nthat lies within the Indonesian healthcare system. The lack of feasibility and accuracy in medical records, long waiting&#13;<br \/>\ntimes and complicated administrative processes&#13;<br \/>\nreflects the inequality towards healthcare access within the country.<\/p>\n<p>Zi.Care aims to rise to the forefront&#13;<br \/>\nof Indonesia&#8217;s Health&#13;<br \/>\nTechnology Startup market,&#13;<br \/>\nserving as a simple solution&#13;<br \/>\nto target Indonesia&#8217;s pressing healthcare needs. Through adoption of Cloud-based Electronic Medical Records (<b>EMR<\/b>) and Electronic Health Records (<b>EHR<\/b>),&#13;<br \/>\nZi.Care hopes to digitize all Health Information Systems&#13;<br \/>\n(administrative, clinical support and claim management) while developing patient&#13;<br \/>\npersonal health record&#13;<br \/>\napps and health passports. Such would facilitate the streamlining of&#13;<br \/>\nhealthcare development for patient centric care and improve hospital administrations and enhance the experience of digital insurance claims.<\/p>\n<p>Established over 4 years ago, Zi.Care was spearheaded by three co-founders, Jessy Abdurrahman,&#13;<br \/>\nSanjaya I Mayluddin and Jodi P.
