Doha, Qatar: Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC)’s new mobile application, Lbaih, has seen remarkable uptake among patients since its launch on July 20, reflecting growing demand for digital healthcare solutions in Qatar.

The app offers users a variety of services, including viewing their medical appointments, requesting rescheduling or cancellations directly, and accessing their medical records easily and reliably.

According to data published by HMC on the X platform, 101,701 users have downloaded the app, with a total of 406,549 logins recorded. So far, 7,214 users have used the app to view, reschedule, or cancel their medical appointments, while 9,011 users have accessed essential health data such as vital signs, lab test results, and prescriptions.

Lbaih is created to make healthcare services more accessible and improve patients’ treatment experience. It supports the country’s efforts to achieve Qatar National Vision 2030, which aims to build an integrated, technology-driven, and innovative health system.

HMC has also invited the public to download the app and take advantage of its wide range of services, aimed at enhancing the overall healthcare experience.

The app is available for download on smartphones and has been designed with a simple, user-friendly interface to ensure ease of use for all groups of patients, while providing a unified experience across HMC’s hospitals and facilities.

For secure access, users register through the Qatar National Authentication System, with the option to enable fingerprint or facial recognition for easier future logins.

Encouraging the public to take advantage of this new digital tool, HMC said that Lbaih not only enhances convenience but also empowers patients to manage their health more flexibly and effectively.
