The healthcare entertainment app “kencom” provided by DeNA’ s subsidiary DeSC Healthcare, Inc. (Headquarters * Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, President: Sho Segawa, hereinafter DeSC Healthcare) is currently used by a total of about 100 organizations including health insurance and local governments, representing approximately 4.8 million persons as of April 2022. DeNA also has a business alliance with Data Horizon Co., Ltd.

Meanwhile, MDV continues to collect and process data based on the consent for secondary license obtained from medical institutions. MDV hospital data represent 39.6 million (actual number of patients, end of April 2022) while health insurance association data represent 7.71 million. The full configuration of this alliance is therefore expected to achieve over 15 million patients’ data.
