On Call, Inc., established in April 2021, operates a platform for home medical care, addressing structural issues within Japan's healthcare system. The company was founded by CEO Dr. Takayoshi Fuu, a clinical physician who recognized the need to support patients who wish to spend their final stages of life in a familiar environment. His experience in home medical care revealed the importance of supportive medicine for incurable diseases and end-of-life situations, which inspired him to create a service that could solve the challenges faced by the sector.
The company's primary service is "ON CALL," an on-call agency for home medical care institutions, providing support during nighttime and holidays. It dispatches a team of doctors and medical directors to patients' homes, covering areas including Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba. This service helps alleviate the heavy workload on primary care clinics and addresses personnel shortages by connecting them with a network of registered doctors and nurses. By outsourcing after-hours care, clinics can ensure continuous support for their patients, who in turn receive the peace of mind that medical assistance is available 24/7. The business model involves both a home medical care platform and a licensed fee-charging employment placement business.
Additionally, On Call operates "Share Reji," a part-time doctor referral service specializing in home healthcare, and develops DX (Digital Transformation) tools to improve efficiency. These tools are designed in collaboration with medical institutions to support clinical practice, automate tasks, and streamline information sharing, aiming to enhance medical quality while reducing burdens. The company's mission is to create a society where high-quality, heartfelt medical care is accessible to all, promoting greater physician participation in and understanding of home healthcare to support Japan's regional medical systems.
