While the United States healthcare system differs significantly from Japan's universal health insurance model—being primarily based on private insurance—Doctors sees substantial opportunities for innovation and improvements in the quality of treatment and services from the patient's perspective. Doctors plans to expand in the U.S. both through the acquisition of local medical institutions, as well as through business partnerships.

The Company’s business model aims to help enterprises to participate in the healthcare sector through the provision of digital healthcare platform on OEM basis, allowing them to create customized virtual health services and forge meaningful connections with their customers in the healthcare space, as well as by the operation of medical institutions, and access to in-person care at our network of digitally transformed brick-and-mortar medical facilities.

Doctors aims to transform healthcare delivery by encouraging private sector participation through its digital platform, thus allowing companies to provide medical and healthcare services on both fee-based, and no-charge options. This approach promises multiple benefits for the American public, including proactive health maintenance; improved health status assessment; enhanced medical navigation; reduced healthcare burdens; and potential cost reduction for private insurance companies through preventive measures.

The Company leverages a network of active expert doctors based on its unique guidelines to provide various services, including:

• Doctors Hub™: offers planning and development support for commercialization of digital healthcare services.
• Doctors Next™: offers comprehensive support services for the delivery of medical DX and digital healthcare services to medical institutions.
• Doctors Station™: offers a sophisticated combination of medical cloud platform along with access to medical institution network.
• Expert doctors™: A network of doctors with top-class clinical experience and achievements as medical doctors, as well as a positive attitude toward digital healthcare and medical DX. More than 700 doctors, mostly specialists, participate in the network.

By applying the methods that have been successful in Japan, Doctors will launch its digital health platform business in the United States, leveraging the platform's features. Doctors plans to bring to the U.S. market its digital health platform that has accounts with more than 47,000 medical institutions and 180,000 healthcare professionals. It allows entities from corporations to municipal governments to participate and build their own healthcare services. By utilizing the Doctors Station™ system, Doctors enables not only medical institutions but also private companies and other businesses to participate in the healthcare sector, conducting business through various channels such as B2C and B2B2C. This model contributes to improving various issues in the healthcare industry, including medical costs, financial difficulties, hospital deficits, insurance system improvements, and the quality of patient treatment and care.
