What Sompo Health Support does
Sompo Health Support Inc. (SOMPOヘルスサポート株式会社) is a privately held, Tokyo-headquartered B2B health support services provider and wholly owned subsidiary of SOMPO Holdings, one of Japan's largest insurance and financial services conglomerates. The company serves two primary customer segments: health insurance organizations (健保組合, 国保, 共済組合), for which it delivers statutory specific health guidance (特定保健指導), severity-prevention programs, incentivized checkup programs, and customized member communication via QUPiO Plus; and corporate employers, for which it provides integrated occupational health, mental health, and health management (健康経営) solutions, including occupational physician placement (月額業務委託 and 人材紹介 routes under license 13-ユ-315488), stress checks (LLax seed), presenteeism measurement (WFun and LLax WLQ-J), resilience assessment (LLax MRP), mental health counseling and return-to-work support (LLax standard, LLax counseling, LLax first call), harassment reporting, e-learning (LLax training), and the Growbase health and HR data management platform.
The company sells through a direct enterprise field-sales model using dedicated consultants, lead-capture web forms, seminars/webinars and a heavy white-paper/content-marketing motion targeting HR and occupational health buyers; no marketplace or reseller channels are used. Pricing is mostly quote-based, anchored on company size, sites, and service scope, supplemented by a regulated 30% placement success fee for paid introductions of physicians, public health nurses, and related medical professionals. According to its own disclosures, it serves approximately 610 insurer organizations with roughly 475,000 specific health guidance encounters per year and approximately 1,100 corporate clients annually, while supporting a nationwide specialist network of around 2,000 professionals on top of a 291-person internal headcount as of FY2024. It has held the White 500 (健康経営優良法人大規模法人部門) certification for 10 consecutive years through 2026.
SOMPO Health Support was effectively reorganized into its current form through a series of mergers inside the SOMPO Group (notably the 2018 tri-merger and a 2019 combination with Healthcare Committee Co., followed by SOMPO Holdings' 2019 capital participation in Wellness Communications), which consolidated the group's scattered healthcare operations into a single specialized entity. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the company has no external institutional investors, sitting inside a group with broad resources, channel reach, and brand trust — assets it leverages to compete with other Japanese B2B health-management and EAP vendors.
