EIRA

What EIRA does

EIRA (legal entity Eira sjukhus Ab, market names Eiran sairaala / Eira Hospital / Eira Medical Centre) is a physician-owned private hospital and medical center headquartered in Helsinki, Finland, originally founded in 1905. The organization operates from two facilities in southern Helsinki — an outpatient Medical Centre at Laivurinkatu 29 and the surgical Hospital with a 24/7 inpatient unit (vuodeosasto) at Tehtaankatu 28 — delivering care through nine specialized sub-clinics (Eira Eye Clinic, Weight Management Clinic, Plastic Surgery Clinic, Sleep Clinic, Addiction Clinic, Ortho Clinic, Dry Eye Clinic, and Men's/Women's Health Clubs), alongside general practice and over 20 medical specialties including cardiology, dermatology, gynecology, internal medicine, neurology, orthopedics, psychiatry, urology, and vascular surgery. Care delivery is supported by an on-site laboratory, imaging/X-ray, a 24/7 inpatient unit offering short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, and detoxification, plus an in-home Eira Kotilääkäri (Home Doctor) service; the practitioner base spans 130+ independent medical entrepreneurs plus 101–250 Eira-employed staff.

The clinical stack pairs specialist human expertise with capital-intensive diagnostic and surgical equipment — Zeiss IOLMaster 700 biometry, SPECTRALIS OCT retinal imaging, VISIA facial skin analysis, and SMILE Pro laser vision correction — together with an in-house electronic patient flow that integrates with Finland's national Kanta records system and Telia-powered strong-authentication for online booking. EIRA operates as a fee-for-service private provider: surgical and consultative prices are listed publicly (e.g., specialist consultations €152–€252 by duration; SMILE Pro €1,225 per eye; weight-loss subscription programs of €450–€1,850 across 3–12 month terms), with an Eira Health Account offering up to 12 months interest-free installments and financing support through the Wasastjerna Foundation. Beyond direct-pay consumers, EIRA runs a small-business occupational health B2B line (Työterveyshuolto) delivered in Finnish, Swedish, and English.

Distribution is overwhelmingly direct-to-consumer via online booking, phone reservations (09 1620 570), and walk-ins; the B2B channel is limited to occupational healthcare for SMBs. As of September 2025, EIRA participates in Kela's 65+ valinnanvapauskokeilu (free-choice pilot), letting over-65 Finns use EIRA's GP services at public patient fees — a regulated channel into public-pay volume from a historically self-pay base. The hospital is ISO 9001 certified (annual external audits), Avainlippu ("Finnish-origin service") certified, carbon-neutral in waste management, and reports a 98.74% internal customer-satisfaction score measured in June 2026; revenue and ownership details are not publicly disclosed.
