Health Report Cloud Platform: iExam
I joined as PM on a cloud health platform trying to get Taiwan's diagnostic centers to trust something digital. Eight months in: 17 clinics, CAD 65K revenue.
What I remember most isn't the number, it's realizing the biggest obstacle wasn't the technology.
Overview
Most diagnostic centers in Taiwan were running on paper reports, manual distribution, and disconnected systems. Patients got their health results on printed sheets. Clinics couldn't easily share data across branches. iExam was built to change that, a cloud platform connecting clinics, patients, and health data through tools people already use every day.
Impact & Metrics
Government-backed validation
The iExam platform was developed under Taiwan’s DIGITAL+ Digital Innovation Initiative, administered by the Administration for Digital Industries (moda).
The program supports projects that demonstrate:
clear market potential
strong technological capability
meaningful industry impact
iExam was selected for its contribution to improving preventive healthcare accessibility and digitalization in Taiwan’s diagnostic sector.

Observations
The tech wasn't the hard part
Early on I thought the biggest challenge was the HIS/LIS integration- every clinic ran a different system, no consistent data format. But after a few sales conversations, I realized the engineers could figure that out. What clinics actually needed to hear first was: "What happens to patient data if something goes wrong, and who's responsible?" Once I understood that, I stopped leading with features and started leading with trust.
People use what's already in their pocket
We had a full standalone app in the roadmap. I pushed to drop it- not because it was a bad product, but because I'd looked at Taiwan's app download behavior. Nobody downloads a new app to view a health report once a year. Embedding everything inside LINE wasn't the most technically elegant path. It was the one that would actually get used.
One conversation changed the whole distribution model
The partnership with Prospect Asia Technology happened because someone mentioned them offhand in a team meeting. I followed up. That one relationship gave us access to roughly 70% of Taiwan's diagnostic clinic network. I learned that in B2B, distribution is often more valuable than the product itself- and that following up on offhand comments is worth more than most scheduled research.
