FPT deploys cashless payment for many large hospitals

Gia Dinh People's Hospital just implemented non-cash payment for hospital fees. The system was deployed by FPT IS. In addition to this hospital, FPT IS also implemented a cashless payment system for National Hospital of Pediatrics.

Thanks to the system, people can make online payments through the following forms: Smart health card, Smart POS, QRcode and Kiosk. Patients and their family members are not required to open accounts at the bank, pay transaction fees or maintain account balances.

The noncash payment not only facilitates patients and their family members, but also helps medical facilities to digitize their management activities and improve service quality.

The solutions emphasize flexibility, utility and ease of use for people compared to other traditional payment methods. They help shorten the medical examination and treatment process for patients and their family members. Accordingly, patients only need to make payments at one place and then receive medical treatment at clinics, laboratories, pharmacies in hospitals. thereby reducing stress as well as risks of cash payment. Especially, these also reduce the risk of direct contact and limit infection amid Covid-19 outbreak.

The hospital fee payment is immediately updated online on hospitals' management software system. Thanks to the deep integration between the bank's payment solutions and the hospital's management system, the solution supports the hospital in collecting hospital fees, managing medical records through smart medical cards, thereby contributing to the development and modernization of the payment system and improving hospital service quality.

Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc issued Directive No. 22/CT-TTg to promote non-cash payments. The Ministry of Health has also completed directing and guiding hospitals to coordinate with credit institutions to implement noncash payment of hospital fees. FPT always accompanies Vietnamese hospitals and medical organizations in building a multi-functional smart hospital management system, including a non-cash hospital fee payment system.
