May 19.
Celestial Medical Center, Information Technology Division.
Accompanied by Chief Technology Officer Isaac Young, Dr. Ethan Carter inspected the latest innovations developed by the hospital's IT division.
The Information Technology Division was the technological backbone of Celestial Medical Center, consisting of 2,000 highly skilled programmers.
Their work encompassed every aspect of the hospital's digital infrastructure—electronic medical records, physician order systems, patient data integration, and advanced analytics.
Isaac led the way, explaining their latest achievement.
"Dr. Carter, our team has successfully developed the Celestial Medical Center mobile app. The app has passed internal testing and is ready for launch."
Ethan nodded in approval.
"Excellent."
In the era of mobile-first technology, an intuitive and fully integrated hospital app would greatly enhance patient experience.
With just a tap on their phone, patients would be able to schedule appointments, access medical records, and manage their treatment plans with ease.
Ethan was eager to see the platform in action.
Accompanied by a team of engineers, he tested the app's newly released features.
The interface was smooth, responsive, and visually appealing.
The homepage displayed a wide range of essential services, including:
Appointment scheduling
Smart medical guidance
Electronic medical records access
Lab and imaging report retrieval
Pharmacy inventory tracking
Billing and payment processing
Celestial Medical Insurance integration
Upon opening the appointment scheduling section, Ethan saw that all 72 medical departments were seamlessly listed, from cardiology and orthopedics to general surgery, neurology, and endocrinology.
A secure UnionPay payment gateway was built into the app, allowing patients to pay their appointment fees instantly.
Beyond patient services, the app also featured real-time hospital news and updates, ensuring patients and their families stayed informed about the latest medical advancements.
Ethan put down the test device, clearly impressed.
"Isaac, this is outstanding work. Please proceed with the official app launch as soon as possible. Our patients will benefit tremendously from this."
"Understood, Dr. Carter."
Isaac nodded.
Ethan continued, his tone serious yet encouraging.
"Isaac, as the head of our IT division, your department is at the heart of Celestial Medical Center's digital transformation.
Every aspect of patient care—medical experience, research quality, clinical decision-making, hospital management, and medical supply tracking—relies on the efficiency of your systems."
"You have my word, Dr. Carter."
Isaac responded with confidence.
"The IT division is a large-scale, multidisciplinary data analytics powerhouse.
We've already developed:
A hospital-wide information management system
An advanced logistics platform
An electronic medical record network
A real-time imaging and transmission system
A laboratory and pathology data integration hub
A smart medical device tracking system
Additionally, we've built a powerful search engine for clinical data retrieval.
Medical staff can now instantly access patient history, treatment data, and relevant medical literature at their fingertips.
Our clinical decision support system leverages AI-powered analytics, pushing real-time insights to doctors by cross-referencing past patient cases, medical guidelines, and research papers.
This ensures that every physician at Celestial Medical Center has access to the latest medical knowledge at all times."
Ethan listened intently, nodding in satisfaction.
The core mission of the IT division was clear—to revolutionize hospital operations through cutting-edge digital solutions.
Unlike standard hospital IT teams, Celestial's Information Technology Division was built like a major tech company.
The 2,000-strong team included:
Oracle-certified database specialists
C#.NET, Java, Python, and PB developers
Cloud computing and cybersecurity experts
Machine learning engineers specializing in medical AI
The scale of the Celestial IT Division was unparalleled, rivaling that of a Silicon Valley tech giant.
With this unmatched combination of elite medical professionals and world-class engineers, Celestial Medical Center was on the verge of redefining modern healthcare.
Dr. Ethan Carter leaned back slightly, his gaze thoughtful.
"Isaac, we're entering a new era of medical technology. Big data, the Internet of Things, and AI-driven healthcare are the future. The IT Division needs to start laying the foundation now."
Isaac Young, the Chief Technology Officer, nodded firmly.
"Absolutely, Dr. Carter. We'll make sure Celestial Medical Center stays ahead of the curve."
Ethan gave a small nod of approval.
Since 2014, big data had been steadily transforming industries.
By 2015, companies had begun developing long-term strategies around data.
By 2016, practical applications of big data had emerged.
By 2017, data-driven decision-making had exploded across sectors.
By 2018, only high-quality, refined data would hold real value.
Cloud computing, AI, and smart healthcare were just around the corner.
For Celestial Medical Center to stay ahead of its time, the Information Technology Division needed to move fast.
After the meeting, Ethan returned to his office and called for his assistant.
A few moments later, Dr. Olivia Quinn stepped inside.
She was a Harvard-educated physician, holding a doctorate in healthcare management from Johns Hopkins University.
Highly sought after in the medical field, Olivia had been recruited with a top-tier salary to serve as Ethan's executive assistant.
Ethan looked up from his desk.
"Olivia, the IT team has finalized development of the Celestial Medical Center app. Have the Public Relations Department start promotion immediately. Patients and their families should download it as soon as possible."
"Understood, Dr. Carter."
She jotted down the note, then glanced up.
"Also, the fleet of staff vehicles is scheduled to arrive tomorrow."
Ethan raised an eyebrow.
"Oh?"
The hospital's board had approved the purchase of 5,000 cars back in April.
Now, after more than a month, they had finally arrived.
Ordinarily, buying a car was a straightforward process.
But 5,000 luxury vehicles?
That required nationwide coordination to secure the models and ensure delivery.
He asked, "What kind of cars are we talking about?"
Olivia read from her tablet.
"This fleet includes models such as the BMW 7 Series, BMW X5, BMW X6, Audi Q7, Audi A8L, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Maserati Levante, Porsche Cayman, Hyundai Equus, Jaguar XJL, and Volkswagen Phaeton."
She continued, "Additionally, some administrators and physicians opted for vehicles like the Volvo S80L, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Volkswagen Touareg, and the Audi A7 with top-tier configurations."
Ethan smirked slightly.
The choices made sense.
Some preferred a fully loaded mid-range vehicle, while others chose an entry-level model of a high-end luxury brand.
It was all a matter of personal preference.
As for himself?
His personal car was a silver Porsche 918 Spyder—a sleek, high-performance hybrid supercar valued at $1.5 million.
Every morning and evening, as he pulled in and out of the hospital parking lot, he could feel the eyes of staff—especially the nurses—following the car's every move.
