“We are glad to achieve significant revenue growth in the third quarter. The growth was mainly driven by the increase in sales of wholesale pharmaceuticals. Contributing to the increase in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was the operations of our recently-acquired five hospitals.”

The CEO continued to say:

“Looking ahead, we plan to form partnerships with hospitals with regional reputations, with the goal of making quality medical care more accessible to the wider public, especially in less- developed areas.” 

Mr. Song claims the partnerships they make will also allow them to offer healthcare management and services for both rural and urban residents in a much more coherent and way.
