H

ypertension patients at the Makasar community health center (Puskesmas) in East Jakarta can now enjoy the smart healthcare system following the introduction of an online check-up service.

Puskesmas head Herisianto Tyahya said on Monday that through the hypertension online treatment (HOT) service, patients could receive a consultation as well as reminder of their medical appointments through an app.

"Hypertension patients should get check-ups regularly," said Herisianto as quoted by beritajakarta.id. "HOT service has a lot of benefits for patients. It can be for a consultation, treatment registration, to remind people of monthly medical check-ups." 

Patients can use the service once they download health app infokes.com.

However, the app is only available on Android-based mobile phones. 

Those using other smartphones can access the service through the website puskesmasmakasar.jakarta.go.id. (agn)
