“We are one of the only organizations in North America that has this scale of real-world evidence generation that can also control how the data is generated as well as engage relevant patients. Our capabilities are not limited to just retrospective data access like most healthcare systems, but we also can work with our partners on prospective initiatives – a unique value proposition,” said Dr. Alexander Dobranowski, founder and CEO of MCI.

In collaboration with its partners and clients, MCI interrogates this data lake for clinical insights that are relevant for direct patient health impact, as well as for health system improvements and commercial value. Currently, MCI provides data insights as a service in six categories: rare disease; complex major medical/chronic; patient cohort building; clinical trial recruitment; synthetic health data and bespoke insights. Additionally, MCI with its subsidiary Khure Health has advanced the use of AI-driven real-world patient record screening that supports family physician continuing medical education and the development of practice improvement plans for cohorts of patients with certain health conditions. Data insights services are targeted at pharmaceutical companies, life science companies, precision medicine companies and top-tier university centres.

“MCI captures the entire patient journey primary care, specialist, imaging and lab diagnostics. Plus, we have a robust in-house clinical research organization with more than 15 clinical trials in progress, a corporate health division and executive concierge medicine, providing a truly 360-degree view of a patient's care pathway that enables the capture of multi-modal datasets from clinical care,” added Dobranowski.

MCI has established technology and research relationships with world leaders in data science (e.g., Palantir Technologies; MDClone), leading academic organizations (e.g., Stanford Innovation Lab), as well as a leading Canadian pharmacy chain, to combine expertise that furthers innovation and discovery in primary care.

“Through Khure we are beginning to work with hospitals and hospital specialists, in Canada and the US, not only tapping into additional opportunity from this sector, but enabling more clinical information to become accessible for screening and insights. We’re expanding our reach and reputation beyond community physicians and making a greater impact in more health systems,” added Dobranowski. “Our mutually enhanced insights will quickly translate into improved health and quality of life for patients.”
