GMO Reserve Plus Co.,Ltd.
GMO Reserve Plus Co.,Ltd. (President & Chief Executive Officer: Soichiro Fukuma, hereinafter referred to as "GMO-RP"), a consolidated company of GMO Epsilon, Inc. in the GMO Internet Group, will provide "Animary by GMO," a reservation management system for veterinary hospitals, from February 18, 2025 (Tuesday).
"Animary by GMO" has functions such as accepting reservations via the web and "LINE", reservation functions that respond to issues unique to veterinary hospitals, such as multiple pets and consideration of the type and size of pets to be examined, vaccine inventory management and interval control for routine vaccinations, and cashless payment. It contributes to improving the operational efficiency of veterinary hospitals and convenience for pet owners.

【Background and Summary】
As pets such as dogs and cats are valued as members of the family, veterinary hospitals are required to respond to advanced and diverse veterinary medical needs, and it is important to provide high-quality veterinary care. In addition, there are issues that complicate the work of veterinary hospitals in a way that is different from that of human hospitals, such as the need for simultaneous visits by multiple pets, medical examinations that take into account the type of pet and the size of the pet, such as large, medium, and small, and the management of vaccine inventory and adjustment of vaccination intervals in order to respond to regular vaccinations.
On the other hand, GMO-RP has been developing a medical-specific reservation management system "Medical Innovation byGMO" since 2016 to support the DX of operations such as appointment reception at doctors' offices and clinics. For veterinary hospitals, we have provided customized products according to their characteristics, and have supported the creation of an environment where veterinarians and staff can concentrate on examinations. In fact, at Japan Small Animal Medical Center, the smooth sharing of information between veterinarians and staff has improved hospital operations and has also led to the efficiency of appointment management, which is difficult in anesthesiology.
And now, in order to support the operational efficiency of more veterinary hospitals, we have decided to provide a new service name of "Animary by GMO" as a system for veterinary hospitals.
Going forward, we will continue to accelerate the reform of medical management such as doctor's offices, clinics, dentistry, and veterinary hospitals by providing services based on an advanced reservation optimization engine backed by overwhelming development capabilities.
About "Animary by GMO"
(URL:https://animary.jp)The reservation management system for veterinary hospitals "Animary by GMO" is a service that systematizes the work of "reservations, reception, interviews, medical examinations, and accounting" at veterinary hospitals, and improves the operational efficiency of veterinary hospitals and the convenience of pet owners. In addition to making reservations on the web and "LINE", it has a reservation function that solves problems unique to veterinary hospitals, such as "multiple simultaneous reservations" and "chain reservations". In addition, it also provides functions such as "vaccine inventory management," "calling on LINE," and "cashless payment" that enables payment other than cash such as credit cards.
Accepting appointments at veterinary hospitals, as in human hospitals, requires consideration of the contents of the examination and the doctor in charge, so manual ledger management is complicated, time-consuming, and prone to errors. In addition, there is a burden for the owner, starting with the reservation by phone, and incurring waiting time in each process such as reception and accounting.
In addition, since the target of medical examinations is pets, there is a need for simultaneous visits by multiple pet owners, medical examinations that take into account the type and size of pets, vaccine inventory management and interval control for routine vaccinations, and prevention of contact between pets in the waiting area. In addition, since there is no system like human insurance, medical expenses are high, and there is a demand for payment other than cash, such as credit cards.
"Animary by GMO" responded to the challenges and demands of these veterinary hospitals and their owners.
■ Main functions
Simultaneous booking of multiple heads |
---|
In the general reservation system, the consultation time for one slot (1 dog) is fixed, so if you make a reservation for 2 slots (2 dogs), the reservation time will be surplus or exceeded depending on the type of pet and the content of the examination, which is inefficient. |
Chained Reservations |
When accepting appointments at a veterinary clinic, the veterinarian, room, and equipment must be adjusted in consideration of the type and size of the pet to be examined, and whether the pet to be examined before the examination will leave a smell. |
Vaccine Inventory Management |
Dogs are required by law to be vaccinated against rabies every year, and combination vaccines are also widely administered. In particular, according to the timing of vaccination notifications sent from municipalities and the concentration of vaccinations, veterinary hospitals need to manage vaccine inventory in anticipation of the number of reservations. |
Vaccine interval control |
Some vaccines that are mandatory or recommended for different types of pets require a certain period of time between the first dose and the second and subsequent vaccinations. It is a big burden for veterinary hospitals to manually manage whether the interval is observed. |
Calling on "LINE" |
In veterinary hospitals, it is necessary to devise ways to prevent stress and trouble caused by contact between pets, and situations where it is difficult for pets to wait calmly due to unfamiliar environments. A typical call bell has a limited physical range, so the owner must wait near the hospital. |
Cashless payment (*) |
Veterinary medicine does not have a system like human insurance treatment, and basically all medical treatment is free. Due to the high cost of medical treatment, there is a need for non-cash payment such as credit cards. |
