By Gloria Mathias

JULO, an Indonesian FinTech has launched a distinctive nationwide healthcare financing feature.

JULO Health will be available to finance Indonesians’ healthcare needs across any of the nation’s health facilities, from hospitals, clinics, dental care, and pharmacies to laboratories and diagnostic centres, in just a few in-app clicks with monthly instalment options.

Chief Business Officer at JULO Group, Nimish Dwivedi, stated, “Medical expenses are often urgent and extremely time sensitive. With the launch of healthcare financing in the JULO app, patients can settle their healthcare payments across any hospital, clinic, pharmacy, or diagnostic centre quickly with just a few clicks. We aim to improve our customer’s overall health in addition to their financial health.”

Irene, a JULO user from Papua, shared her experience, “I had difficulty funding my child’s medical treatment. It was urgent, and there were no friends or family who could help at the time. Fortunately, I tried JULO and immediately got a sufficient credit limit to use. That saved my child.” Another user, Dina from Yogyakarta, a JULO user since 2021, also shared a similar experience. “My child was in a critical condition and had to be taken to the hospital, but I didn’t have health insurance. So, I tried using JULO. The process was quick, and my child was able to receive immediate treatment. I don’t know what would have happened if I hadn’t turned to JULO at that time.”

Throughout 2023, JULO has launched a range of product innovations to promote financial inclusion for Indonesians. These innovations include JULO Education, a financing service dedicated to supporting the advancement of education in Indonesia, covering more than 250,000 formal and non-formal educational institutions across the nation. Also, JULO Cares offers a unique existing gadget protection cover so customers never lose access to their JULO app.

“The launch of JULO Health underlines our commitment to provide our valued customers with innovative benefits that empower them and enrich their lives on an ongoing basis,” stated Adrianus Hitijahubessy, Co-founder of JULO.
