Seoul National University Bundang Hospital announced on the 23rd that it had signed a consulting agreement with the U.S.-based SL Preventive Medical Center on the 22nd to provide operational support for a Korean-style health screening center in Los Angeles. This agreement follows the establishment consulting agreement signed with the SL Foundation in April of last year. Under the agreement, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital will provide comprehensive consulting services regarding ▲preparations for the opening, ▲center operations ▲linking with clinical care ▲staff training ▲development of health screening programs, among other areas.
The signing ceremony, held in the main conference room at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, was attended by approximately 20 representatives from both sides, including Kim Young-tae, President of Seoul National University Hospital; Song Jeong-han, President of Seoul National University Bundang Hospital; Park Do-won, Chairman of SL Health Screening Center; and Jeong Sang-gyo, CEO of SL Health Screening Center. Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, and SL Health Screening Center reached a final agreement on an operational support and advisory contract.
The hospital plans to develop a screening program that leverages the strengths of the Korean screening system to enable the early, comprehensive diagnosis of serious diseases such as cancer, stroke, and heart disease, and to establish a system that refers patients to Seoul National University Bundang Hospital if they wish to receive treatment in Korea.
