on call

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'status of gp at home?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'concerning cry' is the wordplay.
'concerning' becomes 'on' (both can mean 'in relation to').
'cry' becomes 'call' (synonyms).
'on'+'call'='ON CALL'

'reveals' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for on call that I've seen before include "Like a doctor, perhaps" , "Available if needed" , "Contactable" , "ready to respond" , "available in emergencies?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
