AI-Driven Smart
Healthcare

MEDii Health is a new generation of smart clinic

Treatment data and health surveillance usually sit in separate systems. MEDii holds them together and reads them together, so that small things are caught early rather than simply filed. A doctor-led private hospital in central London, operating across both the UK and Chinese markets.

Doctor-led private hospital in central London, founded 2017 · UK CQC medical licence · UKAS-accredited laboratory · MRCP and FRCS doctors · UK work-visa issuing body · Designated PCR testing centre for the Chinese Embassy in the UK · Medical-certificate issuer recognised by the UK Foreign Office.

We are not observing the shift to data-driven care. We are running it.

Lijun Xin

辛利军

Former Chief Executive Officer, JD Health (京东健康)
Non-Executive Director, MEDii Health

What he will cover AI at scale in healthcare: what transferred from the Chinese market, 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.

MedTech in Application — the four topics

Topic one · 19:50 · Confirmed

AI in Healthcare Policy and RegulationHuw Shurmer, Chair, AXREM; Strategic and Government Relationship Manager, Fujifilm Healthcare. Where AI in healthcare actually stands with the regulator, and what a provider has to evidence before any of it reaches live clinical use.

Biography

Huw Shurmer chairs AXREM, the Association of Healthcare Technology Providers for Imaging, Radiotherapy and Care: the UK trade body through which the diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy industry engages with government, the NHS and the regulator. He also chairs WCIF.

His day role is Strategic and Government Relationship Manager at Fujifilm Healthcare, which places him on both sides of the question this evening is built around. What a manufacturer has to prove before an AI-assisted system is approved, and what a health service has to change before it can use one.

Topic two · 20:00 · Confirmed

AI in Clinics — One workflow across multiple sitesDr Aleksandra (Ola) Spencer, Global Chief Operating Officer, Optegra Eye Health Care. Putting AI into live use across a group of clinics rather than a single site, and how it links them into one operation.

Topic three · 20:10 · Confirmed

AI in Pharmacy — Robotic precision, user habit analysisEdward Ungar, Co-founder, Pharmacierge. Robotic dispensing at the UK's largest private e-prescribing network, and what prescribing patterns reveal once you can see them.

Topic four · 20:20 · Confirmed

AI for Clinicians — Workforce, training and the shape of the working dayDr Sam Liu, Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. Where AI gives a doctor time back, where it quietly adds a checking step, and what that means for training.

The programme

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