[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-joo] Jaseng Medical Foundation Ilsan Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital announced on the 4th that it has been designated as a '4th Term, 3rd Year (2023~2025) Korean Medicine Spine Specialized Hospital' by the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

The specialized hospital system was introduced to redefine the functions of medical institutions and enhance the specialization and characteristics of hospitals. A relative evaluation is conducted for hospital-level medical institutions that provide high-level medical services in specific diseases or medical departments. This year, a total of five specialized hospitals were named in four fields: joints, alcohol, spine, and Korean medicine spine.

Ilsan Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital was the only one designated in the Korean medicine spine field. The hospital stated that it met strict criteria with excellent results in patient composition ratio, treatment volume, essential medical departments, medical personnel, and beds for the treatment of lumbar and cervical disc herniation (lumbar and cervical intervertebral disc herniation) and other spinal diseases. The designation period is three years until December 31, 2025.

Kim Young-ik, director of Ilsan Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital, said, "This designation as a Korean medicine spine specialized hospital is the result of the efforts of all members of Ilsan Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital for non-surgical Korean medicine spine treatment," and added, "In the new year of the Year of the Rabbit, we will not stop our best efforts to provide higher quality medical services to our patients."
