AI-Driven Smart
Healthcare

We would rather build this with you than simply invite you to it

MEDii Health has convened the UK–China Private Healthcare Summit since 2018. This year we have narrowed the subject to one question, because it is the one our own clinicians, our hospital partners and our Chinese counterparts keep circling back to.

Where is AI genuinely being used in everyday clinical life — and what has it actually changed?

Not the roadmap. Not the pilot that never left the pilot stage. The systems running on a Tuesday morning in a real department, and the honest account of what they did and did not deliver.

The programme is still being developed, and that is deliberate. We would rather assemble the evening around the people and ideas our network puts forward than hand you a finished agenda and ask you to fit into it. If you know the right person for one of these conversations — or you are that person — we would genuinely like to hear from you.

People who decide, deploy and regulate

Attendance is by invitation and deliberately senior — which is why presentations here tend to turn into conversations that carry on afterwards.

Implementation, not intention

• Everyday clinical lifeWhat changes for a doctor, a nurse or a radiographer between arriving in the morning and going home. Where AI saves genuine time, and where it quietly adds a checking step.
• Running the institutionTriage, imaging, scheduling, documentation, referral pathways, back-office operations — the unglamorous work where AI either earns its place or does not.
• Best practice and standardsWhat good looks like: evidence thresholds, governance, data readiness, and the regulatory questions providers on both sides are asking.
• Policy makers and innovators togetherDeliberately the same room. Those building the tools and those setting the rules rarely hear each other unmediated, and the gap between them is where most good ideas stall.
• An honest registerWe are equally interested in what has been oversold. Candid accounts land far better with this audience than optimistic ones.

The third edition

Programme in development

Three hours, built to hold senior attention: short substantive contributions, and generous time to talk. Timings are indicative and will firm up as the programme comes together.

Four exhibition stands, open all evening

The talks are only part of the evening. Four stands run alongside them throughout, open from the reception at 18:30 and through networking afterwards.

Keynote and China case study

The evening opens with two perspectives on the same subject: how policy can support innovation in healthcare service provision, and what large-scale deployment actually looked like in another market.

What he will cover AI at scale in healthcare: experience and lessons from the Chinese market — what transferred, what did not, and what he would do differently.

Biography

Lijun Xin joined JD.com in 2012, when the company was still a pure retail business, and spent eight years building out its third-party platform across categories from apparel to healthcare. In July 2019 he was appointed Chief Executive of JD Health with an unusual brief: invest in the health sector ahead of profit, and measure success by patient satisfaction rather than performance metrics.

Under his leadership JD Health became one of the largest digital health platforms in the world — reporting 387 million annual active users, pharmacy operations accounting for more than 15% of China's retail pharmaceutical market, and around 100,000 online consultations a day. Few people anywhere have run AI-supported healthcare delivery at that scale.

Four seats in MedTech in Application

The MedTech in Application session is built around four perspectives on the same question, ten minutes each — so the audience hears the buyer, the manufacturer, the clinician and the builder on the same evening. Two seats are still open.

Three ways in — none of them onerous

This form registers your interest — it is not a booking, and submitting it does not confirm a place. Capacity at the British Library is limited and the room is curated, so we review every registration and confirm the final attendee list two weeks before the Summit.

We will use these details only to review registrations and contact you about the UK–China Private Healthcare Summit. We will not share them with third parties, and you can ask us to remove them at any time by writing to marketing@mediihealth.com.
