Home Healthcare (Medical Care, Long-term Care)

Leading medical market relating to home health care services, home-visit nursing, elderly facility services, etc.

Home Healthcare Market 2024 explores market size and market analysis based on the survey on suppliers of domiciliary oxygen therapy, high flow (nasal cannula) therapy, home mechanical ventilation treatment, home peritoneal dialysis, home hemodialysis, home fluid therapy (central vein feeding, enteral feeding, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy [PEG] catheter), home self-catheterization, home self-injection, and self-monitoring blood glucose devices, respectively.  As complementary data, the report also includes information on other medical devices used in the home health care.

The establishment of a new national system that promotes home health care, along with the rise in the number of patients requiring home healthcare, is driving the expansion of the home healthcare industry.

In an effort to establish a "Community-based Comprehensive Care System" amidst a swift rise in the elderly population, the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW) took the initiative. By reengineering the current vertically divided system between medical care and nursing care, the program intends to improve long-term home care (including end-of-life care) while taking the demands of individuals who want to continue living at home for as long as feasible in their familiar community into account. The system improves cooperation among medical institutions and between medical and long-term care services, as well as reinforces the roles of healthcare providers, in order to deliver medical treatment and long-term care services more effectively and efficiently.
