The firm said it had signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Alibaba Health Information Technology Ltd to explore an online health testing platform - part of Ali Health's drive to take healthcare services online.
Ali Health is looking to leverage technology to overhaul China's fragmented healthcare market, which suffers from an under-supply of doctors and a wide gap between urban and rural healthcare.
