Published on 21/10/2024
» Thailand’s public healthcare system faces a unique paradox—it’s available to everyone, but for many, it remains inaccessible.

In response to this critical issue, the Telemedics Club, led by 17-year-old Ty Nilvichean and Kamisra Mahavanidvong, has collaborated with Clicknic, a telemedicine company, to address the gap in healthcare access. Together, they’ve launched a bi-weekly initiative that provides free healthcare consultations and medication to underserved communities.
