Globe has announced that their telehealth service providers KonsultaMD and HealthNow saw strong growth in 2021.
KonsultaMD posted a 140% revenue growth and now has over 1 million members. It also had a rise in user base of 168% year-on-year in 50,000 retail outlets nationwide. KonsultaMD has partnered with over 60 brands and has been active on TikTok with more than 23 million views.
“Telehealth has become an important innovation that will stay and evolve even after the pandemic. We believe the public will continue to use KonsultaMD because of the ease and convenience of talking to a doctor anytime without leaving their homes. This has become an invaluable service during the pandemic,” said KonsultaMD CEO Cholo Tagaysay.
Meanwhile, HealthNow has grown to 800,000 customers barely two years since launch. The telehealth service processes 15,000 to 20,000 medicine delivery orders daily and serves as the Ayala Group’s technology partner in administering COVID-19 vaccines. To date, it has helped administer over one million vaccines.
Globe has said that remote medical access in the country is rising because of convenience, affordability, and safety. Many Filipinos now prefer to consult virtually to lessen the risk of contracting COVID-19 or potentially infecting others.
