KUWAIT CITY, April 15 : The Ministry of Health has announced that patients can now schedule appointments with visiting doctors through their official website or the "Kuwait Health Q8" application. This is part of the Ministry's continuous effort to automate its services and improve patient convenience.

Dr. Abdullah Al-Sanad, the Ministry's official spokesman, explained that patients can submit their registration application via the Ministry's website or the "Kuwait Health Q8" application. The application should include the patient's information and relevant medical reports. The coordination team will then review the application and decide whether to accept it based on the visiting doctor's field and specialization.

Once the request is accepted, the patient will receive a text message with the appointment date and instructions for necessary preparations and examinations before the scheduled appointment with the visiting doctor. This aims to optimize the visiting doctor's time in serving patients.

Dr. Al-Sanad emphasized that this digital transformation and automation of health services is under the direct supervision and guidance of the Minister of Health, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadi. The service was developed by Dr. Abdul Rahman Al-Mutairi, the Undersecretary for Technical Affairs in the Ministry, and Ahmed Gharib, the Assistant Undersecretary for Digital Health. The Ministry is committed to providing patients with the best possible service and convenience through its work methodology.
