Lishui, a mountainous city in Zhejiang Province, China, is characterized by extensive mountainous terrain and a dispersed population. To address this issue, Lishui has introduced the intelligent mobile clinic service. This model leverages 5G technology and integrates the benefits of mobile clinics and telehealth, tailored to the region's geography and demographic characteristics. The intelligent mobile clinic uses real-time data analysis to deliver medical services effectively to remote mountainous areas. Medical personnel from the intelligent mobile clinic visit villages to provide in-person professional health services and facilitate residents' access to higher-level hospital resources through telehealth. This model has received widespread praise and recognition from residents and has yielded significant outcomes. During 2018-2023, a total of 25,000 visits have been made, benefiting 648,000 individuals. The intelligent mobile clinic provides a valuable reference for enhancing health care access in similar regions.
