MedTech Group Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kiyotaka Maeda), a provider of medical AI and hospital AI PMO services, has entered into a capital and business alliance with D&M Company Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka-shi, Osaka; CEO: Akiyoshi Matsushita; TSE Growth: 189A).

### Purpose: Realizing 'AX' Beyond DX MedTech Group is a medical AI company that transforms medical data into value to support clinical sites and management, addressing structural challenges in Japanese healthcare such as doctor shortages and information silos. This alliance integrates MedTech's specialized medical AI, 'AI Hippo Medical Loop,' into D&M Company's support platform, which provides Finance & Investment (F&I), Consulting & Branding (C&Br), and Human Resources & Outsourcing (HR&OS). The goal is to move beyond simple digitalization (DX) and promote 'AX (AI Transformation),' where AI supports the critical thinking of healthcare providers, paving the way for the sustainability of Japanese medicine.

### Synergy: Accelerating AX in Japanese Healthcare Based on the government's principle of 'Human-in-the-Loop' AI, the partnership focuses on three key pillars:

1. Clinical Transformation (AX) through AI x Human Resources: The nursing voice record feature reduces documentation time by up to 75% (from approx. 2 hours to 30 minutes). By automating routine tasks, it creates an environment where healthcare workers can focus on interpersonal care.

2. Organizational Transformation (AX) through AI x Management: Through 'Chat Hippo' and 'Drive Loop' for internal use, fragmented medical knowledge is circulated as organizational assets. This enables high-level, data-driven hospital management that does not rely solely on individual judgment.

3. Standardization for Medical Fees and Subsidies: By presenting quantitative results of AI implementation in response to the 'operational efficiency' evaluation axis of the FY2026 medical fee revision, the alliance supports revenue improvement for medical institutions.

### Future Outlook 1. Establishment of a Japanese Medical AX Platform: The integrated model of 'Management Support x Latest AI' will be rolled out to medical institutions nationwide. 2. Expansion to Next-Generation Data Foundations (PHR/Regional Cooperation): The goal is to create a core that seamlessly connects internal efficiency with regional cooperation and Personal Health Records (PHR). 3. Addressing Structural Challenges: MedTech will fundamentally solve issues like doctor shortages and information silos through the power of AX.
