Ant Group Launches AI Healthcare App AQ to Address Aging Population Needs
Ant Group has officially launched AQ, a new artificial intelligence-powered healthcare application designed to expand its presence in the medical sector. The launch addresses the growing healthcare demands driven by China's rapidly aging population, which is projected to exceed 400 million people over the age of 60 by 2035. The AQ app offers more than 100 digital services, including doctor recommendations and medical report analysis, connecting users with resources from over 5,000 hospitals and 1 million doctors across China. Built on Ant’s proprietary Healthcare Large Model, the platform ensures advanced medical reasoning capabilities while adhering to national data security standards. Additionally, Ant Group has integrated this model into hospital systems and public services through AI agents like Angel and Yibaoer for insurance and hospital inquiries. This move follows Ant's acquisition of the online medical platform Haodf, as the company pilots AI doctor assistants to support diagnosis, patient education, and healthcare delivery in resource-limited settings.
