Samsung Medical Center Partners with Heidi to Test AI Clinical Documentation Software in South Korea

Under the agreement, Samsung Medical Center will conduct a proof of concept (PoC) to evaluate Heidi’s AI-powered clinical documentation technology within its electronic medical record (EMR) system.

Testing AI-Powered Clinical Documentation

Announced on November 12, 2026, the trial will run on Samsung Medical Center’s own infrastructure. It will assess the software’s technical performance, physician acceptance, and the quality of clinical documentation.

The project aims to understand how Heidi’s technology can support healthcare professionals in managing medical records and reduce the administrative workload associated with clinical documentation.

Developing Solutions for South Korean Hospitals

The two organisations also plan to develop Korean clinical documentation and interoperability specifications. These standards will help adapt Heidi’s software to the requirements of South Korean hospitals and their healthcare systems.

If the trial is successful, Samsung Medical Center could become a reference site for Heidi as the company explores wider adoption of its technology in South Korea.

South Korea's Growing Focus on Healthcare Data

South Korea has strict regulations governing the use of health information. Under its Personal Information Protection Act, health data is classified as sensitive personal information.

The planned integration will also consider Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), an international standard that supports the exchange of healthcare information between different digital systems.

Samsung Medical Center ranked fourth in Newsweek’s World's Best Smart Hospitals 2027, highlighting its position in the adoption of advanced healthcare technologies.

Heidi's Funding and Growth

Heidi recently announced that it had raised US$100 million in Series C funding and secured an additional US$240 million growth investment.

The company develops AI-powered tools designed to support healthcare professionals with clinical documentation and related administrative tasks. Its partnership with Samsung Medical Center represents a step towards expanding its presence in the Asian healthcare market.
