JD Health’s New Online Platform Ensures Drug Supply to Chronic Disease Patients
By Hui Zhang
JD Health launched a new platform this week to help patients with chronic diseases maintain their drug supply during the coronavirus. In the first four days, the platform received nearly 10,000 requests and the number keeps rising.
Many patients with chronic disease in China’s Hubei province, where Wuhan is its capital, are running out of their medication, since some local hospitals and pharmacies have suspended regular services, traffic control was strengthened, and people are in quarantine or home-isolation during coronavirus outbreak. To address these challenges, this newly launched online platform connects chronic patients with pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies, and provides timely information on where they can get the drugs they need, online or offline.
Patients can upload their personal information, including symptoms and medications taken, onto the platform. At the same time, pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies can register with the platform and upload information regarding which medications they can supply. The platform will then match patients with pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies who can meet their needs. The data received thus far reveals that patients primarily struggle with maintaining critical conditions such as epilepsy, cerebral infarction, myasthenia gravis, and even cancer, among others.
Many well-known pharmaceutical companies both home and abroad have joined the program so far, including AstraZeneca, Bayer, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group, among others. In order to encourage more companies or pharmacies to come on board, JD Health promises to waive the platform commission generated by every valid drug order in Hubei province.
China’s National Health Commission has emphasized that internet medical services have played an important role in the fight against the coronavirus, and helped patients avoid cross-infections. Online medical consultation has quickly become a popular way to see a doctor since the outbreak of coronavirus. JD Health, a major player in the digital health sector, launched free online medical consultation services, ensured timely medical supply during the epidemic period, and provided free live-streams to ease people’s anxieties about the epidemic.

JD Logistics (also known as Jingdong Logistics) recently announced that it has been awarded the world’s first ISO14068 carbon neutrality certificate for on-demand delivery service by Bureau Veritas, a global leader in testing, inspection, and certification. The certificate comes as a result of JD Logistics’ ongoing commitment to sustainability in supply chain and logistics operations.
JD Logistics has been providing on-demand delivery services for a global technology company since 2022 and has become the brand’s first logistics service provider in China to provide in-dependent, full-lifecycle carbon neutral services at the order-level. Through this partnership, JD Logistics track supply chain carbon footprints and implements precise carbon reduction technologies based on data analysis. JD Logistics has pledged to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 for the project, while assisting its partners in reaching “Carbon Emission Decoupling” goals for on-demand retail services.
ISO 14068 provides principles, requirements, and guidance for achieving and demonstrating carbon neutrality. According to the International Organization for Standardization, this standard focuses on quantifying, reducing, and offsetting carbon emissions, with an emphasis on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within the value chain before relying on offsets. It ensures that carbon neutrality efforts are scientifically valid, transparent, and contribute to sustainable development., and communicated transparently.
In 2023, JD Logistics launched its in-house developed Supply Chain Emission Management Platform (SCEMP), which is verified to track over 140 types of carbon emission factors specific to road transportation in China. SCEMP accurately calculates carbon emissions based on real-time transportation routes, providing unmatched precision. To date, SCEMP has supported over 25 leading enterprises across industries such as electronics, apparel, beauty, auto, food, and chemicals, calculating over six million orders and helping partners to reduce over 300 tons of carbon dioxide.
SCEMP also plays a vital role in JD.com’s retail and ecommerce business. The company’s “Green Impact Initiative” leverages SCEMP to offer a mechanism that can monitor, report, verify, and create value for customers. For instance, Apple and Logitech have participated in this initiative to offer customers “carbon reduce privilege” products. When customers purchase these labeled items on JD’s app, they can earn rewards such as coupons and merchandise.
Through its innovative solutions and commitment to sustainability, JD Logistics continues to lead the way in reducing carbon emissions across the logistics industry. The company’s dedication to carbon neutrality not only supports its own environmental goals but also empowers its partners to contribute to a more sustainable future.
