Introduction of mobile patient meal selection at Gachon University Gil Hospital...Smart system construction map such as hospitalization procedures

May 22, 2025

Gachon University Gil Hospital (Hospital Director Kim Woo-kyung) is speeding up the construction of a smart hospital by developing and introducing a system that allows patients to easily and conveniently use the hospital using mobile.

Gachon University Gil Hospital has recently developed and applied a smart mobile patient meal selection system. Inpatients send access links every day on their mobile devices, and patients who want an optional meal in addition to a basic meal can choose a meal from anywhere, such as a hospital bed, with a click.

Selective meals are applied not only to general common sense (常食), which does not have much restrictions on menu provision, but also to various types of meals such as diabetic meals and bacteria control meals.




The change in the application method from the existing written application method to the mobile method has greatly improved the accuracy of the application results, and ultimately, the satisfaction of meals has also increased.

The Kakao notification talk-based link-input method of meal selection is a system developed by Gachon Healthcare Tech (CEO Lee Beom-seok) with its own technology discussed by the computer team of Gachon University Gil Hospital and the nutrition team, and patients can use it more conveniently because it does not require a separate app installation.

Prior to this, Gachon University Gil Hospital developed a Kakao notification talk-based inpatient procedure system in the second half of last year and introduced it for the first time in Incheon. It is a service that makes it easy for patients to fill out and transmit documents that they filled out by visiting the window of the staff team before hospitalization on their mobile before visiting the hospital.




Eight types of documents, including hospitalization agreements, consent to the use of nursing care services, consent to hospitalization in the ward, and application for the use of higher rooms, were accessed to the link sent to the mobile before coming to the hospital and filled out easily, greatly reducing the time required to fill out documents.

The range of services using hospital mobile apps is also expanding. Gachon University Gil Hospital provides convenience such as appointment and change, confirmation of medical schedule, receipt of medical expenses, and confirmation of waiting numbers using mobile apps, and has also started issuing certificates since last year. It also plans to expand the range of proof services that can be issued through the app.

Kim Woo-kyung, head of Gachon University Gil Hospital, said "Gachon University Gil Hospital is striving to develop its own technology and improve services through cutting-edge technology to provide the best service at the level of patients."
