Roche Vietnam has collaborated with the Ho Chi Minh City Association of Clinical Biochemistry to host the Roche Innovation Day 2023 in Viet Nam, an event to showcase its advanced diagnostic solutions accompanying crucial healthcare trends in Asia Pacific.

The event features inspirational and concrete best practices from prestigious hospitals in APAC and Roche Global that highlight key learnings in improving lab performance, clinical practices, and healthcare system efficiency that impact greatly patient outcomes.

Over 300 hospital directors, laboratory leaders, healthcare professionals, and associations across the country participated in the event.

Roche Innovation Day 2023 is an opportunity for leading healthcare professionals in the region to discuss five critical trends shaping the industry landscape in the coming years, including patient-centric care; data-driven care; decentralised care, care delivery ecosystem; and value-based healthcare.

Particularly, future trends in healthcare will centre on improving patient outcomes by empowering them to make informed decisions and participate in their own care, leveraging AI and analytics to provide personalised healthcare solutions, enabling healthcare to be delivered anytime and anywhere through virtual and home models, fostering collaboration and integration among various stakeholders in the health ecosystem, and promoting quality and value of healthcare services by shifting from volume-based payments to payments tied to outcomes.

Chairwoman of HCM City Association of Clinical Biochemistry Pham Trung Ha said: "Transformation in healthcare, particularly the diagnostics industry, is expected to accelerate at greater speed post-COVID-19 and with the emergence of non-transmitted diseases. Staying abreast of the latest healthcare trends is crucial to healthcare professionals who not only provide patient care today but also tomorrow. We are glad to collaborate with Roche Vietnam to address such helpful and timely topics, which, I believe, will contribute greatly to the country’s healthcare development in the near future."

On the same day, Roche unveiled its latest molecular testing system which is a compact new addition to the Roche molecular portfolio, providing efficiency, simplicity and timely results to laboratories of all sizes. The new system is designed to continue to revolutionise how providers care for patients by enabling healthcare professionals to access reliable and accurate testing solutions to quickly determine the best treatment strategies for their patients.

General Manager of Roche Vietnam Qadeer Raza said: “Roche Innovation Day 2023 builds upon our solid commitment to continue investing in the Viet Nam healthcare system, empowering our partners to innovate, driving operational efficiency and result accuracy that significantly improve patient outcomes across the continuum of care." — VNS
