MY MEDICA and GIMIC Join Forces to Enhance Online Healthcare Services
, an extensive medical information site listing nearly 160,000 clinics and hospitals across Japan. They focus on resolving issues faced by medical institutions by providing IT services. With MY MEDICA's collaboration, GIMIC aims to create a platform by Fall 2025 that will facilitate smooth transitions from online to offline medical encounters, allowing users to search for and contact referral medical institutions more effectively.
This partnership is a continuation of the initiatives both companies have previously undertaken. For instance, they have integrated the functionalities of MY MEDICA and Doctors File to enhance the healthcare experience for users. When users select certain tests such as vision or electrocardiogram examinations, which are typically challenging to conduct online, this data is directly linked to Doctors File. Consequently, relevant information about nearby clinics and hospitals is automatically suggested based on the user’s registered address and the medical specialty required, thus simplifying the search for suitable healthcare providers for those unfamiliar with the medical facility landscape.
