Singapore-based HeartVoice, which was formed in February 2019 as a joint venture between both iAPPS and Omron Healthcare, announced last week that it will extend the use of its telehealth platform to all healthcare providers for free in the country until 31 July, 2020.

In addition to the funding, CXA Group has signed a MoU with Humanica to integrate its Human Capital Management platform with their platform in Thailand.

Mental health and well-being for healthcare workers have become an increasing concern, given their increased workloads and stress levels in coping with the COVID-19 pandemic.  

The Singapore-based startup was founded in 2019 and consists of a team of startup founders and psychologists. 

To date, the Fortitude Kit has been deployed in 13 Singapore hospitals and labs, public and private, and more than 20 countries internationally.

JN Medsys has obtained approval for their PCR Kit from the FDA of the Philippines, and is in the process of obtaining approval from the US FDA.

For individuals in Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, the COVID-19 Medical Advisory Clinic is a full suite service.

The medtech company has obtained provisional authorization from Singapore’s HSA for its rapid test kit to be used in Singapore. 

The funds will be used for the telehealth startup’s expansion in the APAC region with the support of local and regional partners.

The collection kit comes with a bottle of stabilization fluid to be mixed with the sample at the point of collection, keeping viral RNA stable at room temperature for up to one week.
