COMPANY PROFILE
Promoting Digital Transformation at Health Systems by creating an ICT platform for healthcare
Even today, many medical institutions still use PHS, paper, and fax for communication among healthcare professionals, and there is an urgent need to work on business DX. In this context, Frontier Field Inc. provides a smartphone service exclusively for medical institutions that replaces PHS with chat and extension functions and is linked to nurse calls and electronic medical records. The company is promoting the digitalization of healthcare and improving the productivity of medical operations. In the future, it is expected to play a role as a platform in the medical field, not only for use in hospitals, but also for use in regional medical cooperation, nursing care, welfare, and other areas of society as a whole.
COMPANY STORY
Origin
Founded in 2016 when the founder realized the slow adoption of digital transformation in healthcare when he was at NTT Docomo. Frontier Field provides "Nichibyo Mobile," a smartphone service that realizes DX for medical institutions in a secure environment, and developing applications to promote work style reform in the medical field.
Strength
NTT Docomo, among other vendors specializing in hospital communication systems, and major organizations such as the Japan Hospital Association, have strong partnerships in the medical and communication sectors. Their patented technology for sharing smartphones with a unique login feature is a key strength. Unlike PHS (Personal Handy-phone System), their system includes chat functionality, integration with electronic medical records, a unique login feature for identifying staff attendance, quick contact capabilities to designated destinations, and enhanced security measures tailored for medical institutions.
UTEC’s value add
Ongoing support for business and finance strategies, team formation and business execution.
