Rutnin Eye Hospital, one of Thailand’s most trusted and respected eye care institutions, has taken a major step toward its digital transformation journey through a new partnership with Amalga, provider of the Amalga Hospital Information System (HIS).
The collaboration marks a significant milestone in the hospital’s commitment to excellence and innovation, as it prepares to implement Amalga HIS a comprehensive, intelligent platform designed to enhance clinical workflows, improve patient outcomes, and support high-quality, data-driven care.
The signing ceremony was attended by Mr. Jonathan Kings, New Zealand Ambassador to Thailand, and Mrs. Suzy Fewtrell, New Zealand Trade Commissioner to Thailand, symbolizing a growing spirit of collaboration and technological exchange between the two countries.
Transforming Eye Care Through Technology
For decades, Rutnin Eye Hospital has set the benchmark for ophthalmic care in Thailand and the wider region - combining world-class medical expertise with compassion and trust. The hospital’s move to adopt Amalga HIS builds on that legacy, ensuring that both patients and clinicians benefit from streamlined operations and smarter decision-making.
“Our partnership with Rutnin Eye Hospital is a perfect example of how New Zealand’s expertise in digital solutions and the experience of our regional team can come together to address specific, high-level healthcare needs around the world.,” said Xavier Sandel, Head of R&D at Amalga.
“We are proud to work with such a respected institution and look forward to seeing our technology advance their vision for clinical excellence.”
A Shared Vision for Better Patient Experiences
For Rutnin, technology is a means to deepen its commitment to patients, not replace it.
“Rutnin’s focus has always been on delivering the best possible care — rooted in trust, expertise, and compassion.” said Ty Leeaphorn, Managing Director of Rutnin Eye Hospital.
“By adopting McCrae Tech’s Amalga platform, we’re not just upgrading our technology; we’re improving how we care. It’s a meaningful step forward in our continued pursuit of clinical excellence, delivered with empathy and integrity.”
Amalga HIS will enable Rutnin’s teams to work more efficiently, access real-time information securely, and deliver care that is both personalized and precise. The system will be customized for ophthalmic workflows and is set to go live in early 2026.
Building the Future of Healthcare in Thailand
The agreement also opens the door to future collaboration — exploring new technologies, AI-driven tools, and data solutions that can further strengthen healthcare delivery in Thailand.
For both organizations, this partnership represents more than a technology project.
It’s a shared belief in the value of innovation with purpose - where human care and digital capability work hand in hand.
