Myongji Hospital

What Myongji Hospital does

Myongji Hospital is a large multi-specialty general hospital operated by the Medical Corporation Myongji Medical Foundation under Korean nonprofit foundation law, headquartered in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, with 10,000+ employees and a service portfolio spanning 35+ clinical departments and approximately 35 specialized medical centers. Its technical core is built around advanced surgical and diagnostic assets including the 4th-generation da Vinci Xi robotic surgery system (deployed across gynecology, urology, general surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, and otolaryngology), Asia's first hybrid cerebrovascular surgery center enabling combined surgical and interventional treatment in a single space, a dedicated hyperbaric oxygen therapy center, a hotel-grade Sleep Center with polysomnography, and interventional cardiology capabilities including TAVI, pulse field ablation, RF and cryoballoon ablation, 3D cardiac mapping, and wearable ECG diagnostics. The hospital also operates a comprehensive organ transplant program covering liver, kidney, heart, and lung, having performed the first successful heart transplant in northern Gyeonggi Province.

Myongji's business model is a fee-for-service clinical model operating primarily under Korea's National Health Insurance framework, with additional revenue from non-covered (non-insured) services, specialized screening packages via the Suopmaru and Comprehensive Health Diagnostic Center, home healthcare, and an International Medical Center serving foreign patients across six languages. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through hospital visits, online/phone reservations, mobile app booking, partner hospital referrals (including affiliated Myongji Hospital Jecheon, Cheongpyeongho Senior Love Hospital, and the Gyeonggi Northern Sunflower Center), and public healthcare programs. The hospital is led under the legal representative Lee Wang-jun and is governed as a non-profit foundation rather than as a stockholder-owned entity, so revenue figures are not publicly disclosed in the available source material.
