Therefore, we call for<br \/>\nvolunteer doctors to join our virtual health advisory task force to reduce the<br \/>\nburden on the public healthcare system. This is an opportunity for doctors to<br \/>\nvolunteer their time and expertise without putting themselves at risk. We<br \/>\nbelieve that the efforts of our volunteers from the task force will help<br \/>\ncontribute positively in the midst of this public health crisis&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In times like this, the public<br \/>\nwould try to avoid visiting high risk places like clinics and hospitals. HOPE<br \/>\nTelecare would like to help ease public concern and offer easy access, via no<br \/>\nfuss messaging platforms such as Facebook Messenger and via our own HOPE app<br \/>\nfor mobile phones, to information from verified experts at the safety of their<br \/>\nown home,&#8221; Dr Saw added.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>HOPE Telecare is a joint-venture by Myanmar&#8217;s Blue Ocean Investment<br \/>\nLimited, Dr Saw Mra Aung, and Malaysia&#8217;s &#8220;First Digital Signature Electronic<br \/>\nPrescription System&#8221; DOC2US owned by Heydoc International Sdn Bhd as their<br \/>\ntechnical partner.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Htun Htun Naing, Chairman of HOPE Telecare explained, &#8220;HOPE is the<br \/>\nacronym of &#8220;Helping Our People Everyday&#8221; which stems from our mission to help<br \/>\nthe people of Myanmar to get accessible, affordable, and equitable healthcare<br \/>\nservices anytime, anywhere,&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;About 70% of our population living in the rural area where doctors are<br \/>\nnot easily found, while our internet penetration rate is growing at more than<br \/>\n10% year-on-year from the current 43%, we believe telemedicine is the way<br \/>\nforward to improve the quality of care in the country.
