MIAMI & OTTAWA, Ontario — OpenEvidence and the Medical Identification Number for Canada Corporation (MINC#NIMC) today announced a partnership to streamline physician verification for Canada and support continued free access for verified Canadian clinicians.
Article content
Medical knowledge keeps accelerating, and clinicians do not have time to chase down answers across dozens of tabs and paywalls. This partnership reduces friction at the moment of sign-up by allowing Canadian physicians to verify with their MINC number, the identifier already held by more than 95% of physicians in Canada.

“I grew up in Toronto, so keeping OpenEvidence free for Canadian physicians is personal for me,” said Daniel Nadler, Founder and CEO of OpenEvidence. “Our platform has already proven itself with over 500 million AI-powered clinical consultations from verified healthcare professionals globally. MINC is the common identifier across Canadian medicine. Connecting it to OpenEvidence makes verification faster and keeps the tool within reach when a physician needs a cited answer in the middle of care.”

This collaboration represents a significant milestone for both organizations: MINC#NIMC, a federally-incorporated not-for-profit founded and supported by the Federation of Medical Regulatory Authorities of Canada (FMRAC) and the Medical Council of Canada (MCC), has partnered with OpenEvidence recognizing the platform’s positive impact on clinical practice and patient care. With this integration, Canadian physicians can be verified by entering their MINC at registration (or linking it to an existing account), ensuring continued no-cost access while maintaining verification and privacy controls.
