The Japan Male Nurses Association (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Kosuke Tsubota, hereinafter "the Association") will co-host a free online seminar for visiting nursing providers with Zest Inc. (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo), a Nursing DX Award 2025 winner, starting Friday, April 17, 2026. Applications for the "Nursing DX Award 2026" are also currently open (Deadline: Sunday, April 19, 2026).
Background of the Event
With the medical fee revision in 2026, the promotion of DX in medical and nursing care settings is shifting from an "optional initiative" to an "essential management issue." We have entered an era where DX adaptation, such as promoting electronic medical records and expanding information linkage evaluations, directly impacts business profitability.
The Association hosts the "Nursing DX Award" to popularize and promote nursing DX. The inaugural 2025 event was featured in many media outlets, including nursing journals and web media like Yahoo! News, attracting attention not only in the nursing industry but broadly across the healthcare DX field.
The co-host, Zest Inc., is a Nursing DX Award 2025 winning company. They provide a cloud service that automatically creates and manages visiting schedules and routes, leading operational efficiency in visiting nursing.
As the need for DX grows with the medical fee revision, we planned this seminar to support DX promotion and address frontline concerns like "I don't know where to start" or "I'm worried about implementation costs and ROI."
Seminar Overview
Using the "Support Book for DX/ICT Promotion" published by the National Association for Visiting Nurse Service as a subject, Representative Director Kosuke Tsubota will explain practical steps for "Visiting Nursing DX without losing out."
Main topics to learn:
- How to objectively grasp your business's current state using the "ICT Diagnostic Chart"
- Specific case studies of utilizing business support systems, AI, and IoT
- Information security measures for safe operation
- Currently available subsidy information and cost-effectiveness thinking
- How to choose a system that fits your business size and situation
Recommended for businesses that:
- Want to fully promote DX taking advantage of the medical fee revision
- Want to avoid the failure of "implementing a system but not using it"
