Bumrungrad Health Network (BHN), an organization system of Bumrungrad International Healthcare facility, is signing up with hands with Be Well Medical Center, a Hua Hin-based household medical center, to substantially broaden its healthcare to cover expats as part of a strategy to manage a drop in client numbers throughout the pandemic.
