The Taiyuan Municipal Medical Security Bureau is a government department under the Taiyuan Municipal People’s Government, responsible for refining the integrated basic medical insurance system for urban and rural residents and the critical illness insurance system; establishing a multi-tiered, universally covered, and integrated urban-rural medical security system; continuously improving medical security standards; ensuring rational, safe, and controllable use of medical insurance funds; advancing the “triple integration” reform of healthcare, medical insurance, and pharmaceuticals; and better meeting public healthcare needs while reducing medication costs.

To enhance daily collaboration and communication efficiency—and enable rapid, timely meetings and remote business training with subordinate districts and counties—the Taiyuan Municipal Medical Security Bureau, with IFREECOMM’s support in 2022, deployed a video conferencing system that connects upward to the Shanxi Provincial Medical Security Bureau and downward to all district- and county-level departments across the city, supporting core applications such as video meetings, work reporting/policy dissemination, business learning and training, and emergency consultations.
Citywide coverage, seamless provincial connectivity
The IFREECOMM-deployed video conferencing system uses the Taiyuan Municipal Medical Security Bureau as the main venue and district/county units as branch venues—covering all 10 district- and county-level medical security bureaus (Xiaodian, Yingze, Xinghualing, Jiancaoping, Wanbailin, Jinyuan, Gujiao City, Qingxu County, Yangqu County, and Loufan County), as well as the Municipal Pharmaceutical Procurement Center and Municipal Medical Insurance Center. This has established a more efficient communication mechanism, enabling rapid dissemination of key guidance and policy interpretations from higher-level authorities—and accelerating information flow and operational alignment between provincial, municipal, and district/county levels—to elevate overall business management capabilities.

The IFREECOMM video conferencing system supports industry-standard H.323/SIP audio/video protocols, offering high openness and flexibility to fully interoperate with third-party platforms, video conferencing endpoints, and peripherals. Fully compliant with national medical insurance data standardization requirements, it seamlessly integrates with Huawei’s conferencing platform—enabling high-definition, face-to-face video meetings with the provincial and national medical security authorities. This approach maximizes legacy equipment utilization while reducing overall system deployment costs.
End-to-end video conferencing + digital meeting room solution
IFREECOMM deployed a high-performance, fully adaptive conference MCU built on an all-new hardware platform, supporting full 1080P encoding/decoding. It automatically identifies and adapts to all connected endpoints—regardless of bandwidth, resolution, or protocol—making video conferencing simpler and more intuitive.
In addition to the HD video conferencing system, IFREECOMM delivered a comprehensive digital meeting room solution—including conference system host, central control host, video matrix, digital power amplifier, digital audio processor, feedback suppressor, chairman unit, delegate units, power sequencer, speakers, omnidirectional microphones, and microphones.

This marks IFREECOMM’s latest upgrade to its meeting solutions since 2022—integrating eight core capabilities: digital speech, centralized control, visualized distributed systems, conference sound reinforcement, paperless meetings, meeting recording & broadcasting, video conferencing, and Dante audio networking—delivering a unified, integrated “audio-visual-light-electric-control” solution with centralized management and construction, fulfilling users’ end-to-end video conferencing and smart meeting room needs.
Multi-scenario, multi-purpose applications
Since deployment, the Taiyuan Municipal Medical Security Bureau has used IFREECOMM’s video conferencing platform to initiate on-demand and scheduled remote meetings—rapidly disseminating and interpreting healthcare, medical insurance, and pharmaceutical policies and directives to all districts and counties; organizing staff training; and monitoring implementation of key initiatives. District- and county-level units likewise report progress, consult, and seek approvals during these sessions. For emergencies—such as the COVID-19 pandemic—the bureau quickly convened emergency video consultations with all district- and county-level medical security units per its contingency plan, enabling rapid coordination and task assignment.

When provincial medical security authorities convey national medical insurance conference highlights and key work assignments, they can now hold “one meeting, province-wide coverage”—reaching all levels (provincial → municipal → district/county)—significantly boosting administrative efficiency and minimizing travel for district- and county-level staff during the pandemic.

In Shanxi Province, IFREECOMM has already deployed and operationalized video conferencing and emergency systems for numerous Party and government agencies—including the Xinzhou Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau, Linfen Highway Administration, and Yangquan Municipal Government—all meeting their respective operational requirements. Moving forward, leveraging its full-stack cloud-edge interconnection capability, IFREECOMM’s磐石 (LingMu) series and UCLink cloud conferencing products will deliver more professional, stable, and comprehensive meeting services to government and enterprise clients across Shanxi and nationwide.
