What happens when a healthcare provider transforms patient communication with AI?
At Mimin, we had the opportunity to collaborate with EMC Healthcare to enhance patient engagement and simplify appointment management through AI-powered communication.
As one of Indonesia's leading healthcare providers, EMC Healthcare operates across eight hospitals, serving thousands of patients who expect fast, accurate, and convenient access to healthcare services. From booking appointments to finding the right specialist, patients increasingly expect healthcare providers to be available whenever they need assistance.
To meet these expectations while improving operational efficiency, EMC Healthcare adopted an AI-powered patient engagement solution.
The Challenge
Managing patient communication across multiple hospitals presented several operational challenges for EMC Healthcare.
Some of the key challenges included:
- Handling a high volume of appointment requests across multiple communication channels.
- Managing appointment bookings, reschedules, and cancellations efficiently without increasing administrative workload.
- Providing patients with fast access to doctors, schedules, and hospital information.
- Ensuring consistent service across multiple hospital locations and languages.
- Allowing care teams to focus on patients requiring human attention instead of routine administrative tasks.
The goal was clear: create a faster, more scalable, and patient-friendly communication experience while improving operational efficiency across all hospitals.
The Solution
Together with EMC Healthcare, Mimin implemented an AI-powered patient engagement solution powered by Generative AI and Agentic AI.
Integrated across WhatsApp, voice, web, and mobile applications, the solution enables patients to complete common healthcare interactions independently while allowing hospital staff to focus on more complex cases.

The Real Impact
Since implementing Mimin's AI-powered patient engagement solution, EMC Healthcare has significantly improved both patient experience and operational efficiency.
The implementation has enabled EMC Healthcare to:
