ndonesian telemedicine company YesDok has made its services available through e-wallet DANA in a bid to tap into the growing online medical consultancy sector during the COVID-19 pandemic.
YesDok CEO Irwan Hartanto said that bringing the telemedicine feature to DANA was a step further in the two parties’ partnership. The e-wallet has been a payment partner for YesDok since 2019.
“People are rapidly adapting to digital solutions for daily needs, including medical consultations during the pandemic,” he told the press on Friday.
“Hopefully, we can be accessible to more people through this partnership.”
YesDok uses a recorded video conference system and can handle up to 6,000 video calls per day.
According to a survey by the Mobile Marketing Association, 38 percent of respondents tried online medical consultation services for the first time in April, among other online services such as e-learning and online fitness classes.
Irwan went on to say that YesDok had seen a three- to five-fold rise in user traffic during the pandemic, with most users consulting about COVID-19-related health issues such as fever, cough and flu symptoms.
