The Oman Health Exhibition 2025 has officially commenced in Muscat, placing a powerful spotlight on the future of medical services. This year’s event, inaugurated under the patronage of H E Khalid Hashel al Muselhi, Undersecretary at the Foreign Ministry, gathers a distinguished audience of government officials, healthcare innovators, and international delegates. Organized by the Ministry of Health, the exhibition unites public and private sector institutions with key insurers, highlighting the critical importance of cohesive healthcare financing models for the nation’s progress.
A central theme of the current exhibition is the transformative potential of digital health and artificial intelligence. Attendees can explore live demonstrations featuring advanced robotics, drone technology for logistics, and sophisticated telemedicine platforms. During his keynote address, Dr. Nayyar Razvi, Chairman of Canada’s Emrana Health, detailed how AI-powered patient intake systems can reduce administrative burdens for physicians by as much as 40 percent. He was careful to emphasize that these intelligent tools are designed to augment, not replace, a doctor’s expertise, with the final treatment decisions firmly remaining in the hands of medical professionals.
Building on this vision, Emrana Health has announced plans to significantly expand its telemedicine footprint within Oman. The proposed services include structured home visits by medical staff and highly detailed remote consultations driven by comprehensive patient data. This initiative is strategically designed to overcome geographic challenges, making quality healthcare more accessible and improving overall system efficiency for patients across the country.
The international presence at the event is notably robust, with leading hospitals from Canada, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, South Korea, Thailand, and Turkey presenting their specialized expertise. Their offerings cover a wide spectrum of medical fields, including cardiology, oncology, orthopaedics, and fertility treatments. A clear indicator of the event’s growing prestige is the “Treat in Oman Pavilion,” which has seen participation surge by 30 percent. This platform allows a diverse array of local and regional healthcare providers to showcase their most advanced medical services to a global audience.
