About

Built by a team fluent in medicine, AI, and regulation.

MEV does not believe AI should replace clinicians. Our aim is to make clinicians' decisions more accurate by attaching evidence, physician sign-off, and an audit trail to every one of them.

Expertise

No single discipline can solve this problem.

Claims, coding, and referrals sit at the intersection of clinical practice, claims review, engineering, and regulation. MEV brings all three areas of expertise together in one team.

  • Clinical practice · claims review

    Domain expertise in clinical documentation and claims-review criteria. We start from what gets denied, and why patients are referred.

  • AI engineering

    We design models that work with clinical documentation, code sets, and guidelines, and explainable pipelines that present evidence alongside every result.

  • Healthcare regulation · governance

    We assess the Medical Service Act, the Personal Information Protection Act, and the MFDS medical device (SaMD) pathway to meet hospital adoption requirements.

Leadership

Built by a practicing physician and a medical informatics researcher who know the field firsthand.
