Having the patient conduct these screening procedures themselves with the aid of devices can also help cut down waiting times, said Mr Voon, adding that such booths can also help address the manpower crunch in the healthcare sector.The company aims to launch up to 10 of the booths in areas such as Jurong and Tampines in partnership with a multinational company, adding that it is also in talks to introduce them in Malaysia and Indonesia.
The two exhibitions - which are being held at the same time - feature more 700 exhibitors from 700 countries and regions, with 20 companies from Singapore alone.
