The combination of the two units contributes to forming an effective treatment stratification model, improving screening capabilities, early detection of diseases, timely treatment and appropriate referrals. Thereby, people can access quality medical services right in their place of residence, reducing pressure on upper-level hospitals and increasing the effectiveness of community health care.

The clinic operates 24/7 with a full system of specialized and paraclinical departments. The facility has been approved by the Ministry of Health for a list of 1,103 medical examination and treatment techniques, allowing deployment from basic techniques to many in-depth techniques right at the grassroots level. Modern equipment systems such as CT scanners, digital X-rays, 4D ultrasound and electronic medical records and remote consultation support solutions help connect expertise with the central level, ensuring accurate, continuous and effective diagnosis and treatment processes.

Also according to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Lan Hieu, people will have access to a team of doctors and experts in many fields right at their place of residence.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Dam in Linh Nam ward, Hanoi shared: "Previously, if I wanted to be examined, I had to go far and through many steps at health facilities in the right tuyến. This time, I went to the General Clinic of Hanoi Medical University Hospital - Vinh Hung Facility to check my health, which is both close to home and quick. In just over an hour, I had examined many services such as blood tests, ultrasound, dental examination. People like us can access quality medical services right at our place of residence.
