SHANGHAI, Dec. 11,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Zhongchao Inc. (NASDAQ: ZCMD)
("Zhongchao" or the "Company"), a platform-based internet
technology company offering services for patients with cancer and
other major diseases, today announced that Shanghai Zhongxin
Medical Technology Co., Ltd. ("Zhongxin"), of which Zhongchao
consolidates the operations and financial results through a series
of contractual arrangements, has renewed its service agreement (the
"Agreement") with Beijing Public Health Foundation ("BPHF"), a
non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing Chinese citizens'
health through public welfare initiatives and aid programs.
Pursuant to the Agreement, Zhongxin and BPHF extended its
partnership to work together on a patient aid project (the
"Project") to provide medication assistance services for cancer
patients.
The Project offers free Doxorubicin Hydrochloride Liposome
Injections to low-income patients with breast cancer, lymphoma,
Kaposi's sarcoma, ovarian cancer, osteosarcoma, and myeloma based
on their needs. The Project aims to ensure patients to have longer
lasting and more effective medical treatments with less financial
burden. The Project operates through over 300 hospitals and 100
pharmacies, where qualified cancer patients after an assessment can
receive their medications for free. To date, the Project has been
in operation for three years, serving over 6,000 patients and
donating more than 22,000 doses of medication.
Under the supervision and guidance of BPHF, Zhongxin, leveraging
its self-developed patient assistance program technical service
platform, is responsible for providing staff with training and
daily operation management, maintaining the project website,
management for patients, and monitoring and analyzing project
progress. These efforts aim to standardize the workflow and enhance
the operational efficiency of the Project. Additionally, the
platform also performs information management for Project
participants, such as hospitals and pharmacies, to improve
operational efficiency and accuracy.
With the rising incidence of cancer and prolonged life
expectancy brought by new technologies, the cost of innovative
medications and long-term treatments has intensified financial
burden on patients. Zhongchao believes that the Project encourages
and supports patients in need to adhere to sustained treatments
with significant therapeutic effects and less financial burden on
families. Zhongchao remains committed to leveraging its service
capabilities and experience in enhancing treatment efficiency and
quality of life for cancer patients.
