The Gold Award for Patient Experience Improvement went to Wattanosoth Cancer Hospital for its "Care Beyond Cure" programme, which embodies a Value-Based Healthcare model focused on delivering meaningful health outcomes while prioritising patient experience. The approach emphasizes Patient-Reported Outcomes across physical, mental, and quality-of-life dimensions throughout each stage of cancer treatment.
The first Excellence Award for Best in Financial Improvement recognized Wattanosoth Cancer Hospital's innovation in scaling Ga-68 PSMA radiopharmaceutical production for prostate cancer diagnosis using PET/CT technology.

The initiative aims to minimize environmental impact, raise awareness among staff and patients, and promote efficient resource use to ensure long-term healthcare delivery alongside environmental stewardship.
All three awards reflect Bangkok Hospital Headquarters' strategic focus on Value-Based Healthcare across three dimensions: delivering superior patient experience and outcomes, developing innovation to enhance efficiency, and conducting operations with responsibility toward environment and society. The recognition underscores the institution's contribution to advancing Thailand's healthcare system to international standards.
