KASIKORN Business-Technology Group (KBTG) has joined with Thonburi Healthcare Group Plc. (THG) in creating THG HyCar to offer a COVID-free shuttle car service in alignment with the 'new normal' era. Under stringent cleanliness and hygiene standards, the service aims to make commuters worry-free in their traveling, while reservations can be made easily via LINE @THGinfo. THG HyCar is operational today at hospitals under THG Group in the Greater Bangkok area, the service will be further expanded for travel point-to-point throughout Bangkok and other provinces in response to the country's reopening.
Dr. Charoenchai Boworntummarat, Senior Principal Visionary Architect, KBTG, noted that at present, life and business are intertwined inevitably through technology. Digital platforms have thus become a part of our daily lives. Amid the COVID-19 outbreak, many people have become concerned about the risk of viral infection while traveling.
To offer a new transportation channel for people wishing to use services at THG's hospitals, KBTG has partnered with THG to introduce the THG HyCar platform for booking COVID-free shuttle cars. The booking process is convenient: Just register for the THG HyCar service via LINE @THGinfo, specify your location, the type of vehicle you want and pickup time, then make a payment. Once you have paid, you will get a booking slip via LINE, and your chosen vehicle will pick you up at the scheduled time.
Dr. Charoenchai Boworntummarat added that the collaboration to introduce the THG HyCar platform had been sparked by the desire to ease concerns over COVID-19 infection while traveling. This platform is based on KBTG's professionalism, plus its innovation and technological expertise. It has been designed with the convenience of users in mind, and is intended to offer Thais a new option for traveling to hospitals in line with the government's attempts to reopen the country, and enhance people's confidence in getting back to their normal lifestyles.
Dr. Tanatip Suppradit (M.D.), Chief Executive Officer of Thonburi Healthcare Group Plc. (THG), said that many people are still afraid to use public transportation due to the increased risk of COVID-19 infection while traveling.
THG joined with KBTG in creating the THG HyCar COVID-free shuttle car service platform, which exemplifies secure travel during the 'new normal' era in line with enhanced safety standards. The platform aims to boost people's confidence and ease their concerns towards the use of public transportation, offering services at affordable prices and easy reservation via LINE @THGinfo. THG HyCar is open to patients using services at any of the four hospitals under the Thonburi Healthcare Group Plc. (THG), namely Thonburi Hospital, Thonburi 2 Hospital, Thonburi Bamrungmuang Hospital and Thonburi Burana Hospital.
Dr. Tanatip adds that two types of cars are available as part of the service: 1. EV Car (Nissan Leaf) and 2. Premium Car (Toyota Camry). Every car is subject to the Amazing Thailand Safety and Health Administration (SHA) standards. Service users can contact us via LINE @THGinfo to reserve a shuttle car three hours in advance. The THG HyCar COVID-free shuttle car service platform is now open for service and will expand to provide point-to-point car service across Bangkok and other provinces in the near future.
