To facilitate physician follow-ups with patients, JD Health announced that starting August 19, all doctor-patient consultation orders generated by scanning offline follow-up QR codes to access the JD Internet Hospital platform will be exempt from commission fees.
"This represents JD Health's commitment to physicians. Eligible doctors can utilize platform tools to serve offline patients free of charge, reflecting our respect and care for the medical community," stated Xiao Jianbo, General Manager of JD Health's Internet Medical Services. Waiving commissions will enhance both service quality and efficiency while optimizing healthcare resource allocation, alleviating the relative scarcity of offline medical resources.
Post-consultation follow-up management via internet platforms extends hospital treatment. For physicians, intelligent chronic disease management platforms transmit patient monitoring data (e.g., blood pressure, blood glucose) in real-time to their online workstations, facilitating condition tracking. Simultaneously, doctors can use these platforms to strengthen communication and guidance with patients, thereby improving overall treatment outcomes.

While waiving commissions on internet healthcare platforms may seem like a minor move, it holds significant implications for the medical industry's development. This initiative better promotes specialized medical care and greatly facilitates doctors' follow-ups with patients from offline clinics and hospitals. Long-term, this measure benefits the effective allocation of high-quality medical resources and advances the implementation of tiered diagnosis and treatment.
JD Health aims to attract more physicians to participate in online post-treatment follow-up management through this initiative. It also seeks to rekindle societal respect and recognition for the medical profession while contributing to improved physician compensation.
Notably, physicians conduct online consultations, accept appointments, perform follow-ups, and manage chronic disease care through the JD Doctor App.On August 19, coinciding with China's third Physician's Day, JD Doctor—the exclusive online platform for physicians at JD Internet Hospital dedicated to work management, patient care, and medical exchange—officially unveiled its upgraded brand identity.
