About the Hospital

In July 1992 the Medical Service Law was revised, through which university hospitals providing advanced medical care were certified as “special functioning hospitals”. Since February 1994 this hospital has also operated as a special functioning hospital. The goal of the revision was threefold: to promote the systemization of each medical center according to their areas of expertise, to resolve the skewed distribution of patients towards major hospitals, and to maximize efficient usage of limited medical resouces. Special functioning hospitals not only provide advanced health care services, but are also capable of medical research, development, evaluation, and training.
