What Medical corporation Keijinkai Yatsushiro Keijin Hospital does

Medical corporation Keijinkai Yatsushiro Keijin Hospital is a private Japanese medical corporation (医療法人) operating a 206-bed community hospital in Yatsushiro City, Kumamoto Prefecture, founded in 1956. The hospital provides integrated elderly-focused healthcare across four distinct ward types — Medical Care Sanatorium (79 beds), Regional Integrated Care (42 beds), Recovery Rehabilitation (50 beds), and Long-term Care Medical Facility (35 beds) — alongside outpatient services, health checkups, vaccinations, and three home-care service lines (Visiting Nursing Station Keijin, Day Rehabilitation Keijin, Keijin Home Care Management Office). The hospital employs 262 staff including 46 rehabilitation therapists (physical, occupational, speech-language-hearing), 66 nurses, 31 licensed practical nurses, and 52 care workers, supported by an on-site nursery school (Ekubo) for staff retention.

The hospital's underlying clinical platform centers on conventional medical rehabilitation technology, with specialized programs in swallowing disorder treatment (嚥下外来) using multidisciplinary teams plus external dental collaboration, and botulinum toxin injection therapy for post-stroke spasticity — services not commonly available at general clinics. An electronic medical record system (電子カルテ) has been implemented across the facility. Service delivery relies on an in-house, directly-employed staff model with no third-party distribution channels.

Revenue is generated primarily through medical service fees billed under Japan's universal health insurance system, covering National Health Insurance, late-stage elderly insurance, social insurance, and nursing insurance programs at rates set by the national fee schedule. Supplementary revenue comes from publicly priced outpatient offerings including health checkups (¥3,080-¥7,260) and vaccinations. The hospital's go-to-market relies on regional referral networks coordinated through its Regional Collaboration Office (地域連携室), direct patient inquiries, and word-of-mouth — with no traditional marketing or paid advertising. Geographic scope is limited to Yatsushiro City and surrounding areas in Kumamoto Prefecture.
