What Kurashiki Medical Center does

Kurashiki Medical Center (\u5009\u6577\u6210\u4eba\u75c5\u30bb\u30f3\u30bf\u30fc) is a general medical foundation (\u4e00\u822c\u8ca1\u56e3\u6cd5\u4eba, a Japanese non-profit medical corporation) established in 1971 and headquartered at Hakurakucho 250, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, Japan. It operates as a regional acute-care general hospital providing comprehensive healthcare services across 19 clinical departments and 8 specialized centers, including internal medicine, gynecology, obstetrics, pediatrics, ophthalmology, surgery, urology, orthopedics, dermatology, and additional specialties. The hospital is part of the Japan Green Medical Group (JGH), an affiliated network of medical facilities operating in Singapore, the United Kingdom (London), China (Shanghai), and Vietnam (Hanoi).

The center's core technology infrastructure centers on three Da Vinci robotic surgical systems (one da Vinci SP, the first installation in West Japan, and two da Vinci Xi units) housed in the Robot Advanced Surgery Center established in February 2021, complemented by FireFly ICG fluorescence imaging for sentinel lymph node biopsy and nerve-sparing procedures, 4D ultrasound systems for prenatal diagnostics, and advanced endoscopic equipment. The facility has accumulated 5,684 robotic surgery cases from October 2013 through June 2026, with 90% of gynecological and urological surgeries performed as minimally invasive procedures. Specialized centers also include the Eye Center (cataract, glaucoma, retinal disease), Perinatal Center (~1,300+ annual deliveries with LDR rooms and 24/7 anesthesiology), Breast Center, Rheumatology Center, Dialysis Center, and Endoscopy Center.

Revenue is generated primarily through reimbursement under Japan's national universal health insurance system, supplemented by out-of-pocket payments for non-insured services such as painless delivery (¥50,000 add-on) and certain cosmetic procedures. The hospital operates a direct-to-consumer model with patients booking appointments directly or via referral from regional clinics, supported by a Patient General Support Division for referral coordination. Pricing for a first-time maternity package totals ¥573,770 over 6 days, offset by the ¥500,000 childbirth allowance to a net patient burden of ¥73,770, with insured robotic surgery capped at approximately ¥80,000 patient burden under Japan's high-cost medical expense system. The foundation holds consecutive White 500 health management certifications (2021-2025), ISO 15189 laboratory certification (2024), and a 2026 designation as a regional cancer care coordination hub hospital from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.
