The rapid evolution of healthcare demands innovative solutions to enhance patient access and operational efficiency. Medical appointment systems have emerged as a critical tool in meeting these needs. This paper examines Hangzhou TeYang Networking Technology Co., Ltd. 's development journey from Model 1.0 to Model 4.0, showcasing how each stage introduced new capabilities to improve scheduling, resource allocation, and patient experience. By tracing this progression, we highlight the integration of digital technologies, workflow optimization, and patient-centered design. The findings illustrate how iterative innovation in appointment systems can address persistent challenges in healthcare delivery and provide a foundation for more intelligent, accessible, and efficient digital health services.
