Advantage Risk Management Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Meguro-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director and President: Shinji Torigoe) announces that it has concluded a sales agency agreement with Mediphone Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director and CEO: Mayumi Sawada; hereinafter "Mediphone"), a company that provides remote medical interpretation for medical institutions and health management support for corporations, for its cloud-based health management system "mediment."

1. Aim of the Alliance

In recent years, companies have increasingly viewed the physical and mental health of their employees as a crucial management resource, leading to an accelerating trend towards advanced health management and human capital management. However, health management tasks such as health check-ups, stress checks, and industrial physician consultations have become more complex each year, posing a challenge due to the increased workload on human resources and labor departments.

To date, our company has provided "Advantage Healthcare," a health check-up management system that centrally manages health check-up information, through cooperation with other companies' systems.

This agreement was concluded with the aim of adding "mediment," provided by Mediphone, to our service lineup. Through this agreement, we aim to achieve:

・Development of new services leveraging the knowledge and expertise of both companies

・Mutual introduction and sales collaboration of services to customers of both companies

・Expansion of health management services for corporations through the integration of both companies' services

By doing so, we will support the promotion of corporate health management and the maintenance and improvement of employee health, while also striving for the advancement of services in the industrial health domain and the sustainable growth of our business.

We will strengthen cooperation by utilizing the customer bases and sales resources of both companies to meet the diverse needs of corporations, thereby expanding our customer base.

■ Features of "mediment"

"mediment" is a system that significantly contributes to the efficiency of tasks that have been cumbersome and time-consuming for HR and labor managers, such as conducting health check-ups and stress checks, managing result data, coordinating industrial physician consultations, preparing reports for labor standards inspection offices, and managing special health examinations.

It features an intuitive system screen that allows for advanced cross-analysis of employee health data by department, age, and health check-up item with a single click. It also enables smooth identification of employees at risk, such as those with abnormal findings or high stress levels. "mediment" is also optimized for companies promoting diversity management, as it supports an increasing number of foreign employees through multilingual employee screens and medical interpretation services for online industrial physician consultations/medical care.
