The Medical Engineering Institute (MEI) has recently achieved a significant milestone, surpassing 5 million records in their secondary data derived from electronic medical records (EMR). This achievement is a result of a strategic capital and business partnership established with KDDI Corporation in Tokyo, which commenced in 2023. MEI has been actively collaborating with over 60 healthcare institutions nationwide to build an advanced medical data platform, focusing on accumulating and analyzing EMR-derived data. Looking ahead, MEI aims to scale their usable EMR-derived data to approximately 10 million by the end of the fiscal year 2026.
