FIXER Supports Hospital ICT Implementation to Meet Requirements for Preferential Medical Fees – coki.jp

News Highlights

FIXER has launched support services for ICT implementation in hospitals. This will assist hospitals in meeting the requirements for preferential treatment related to ICT adoption under medical fee regulations. Key points highlighted include preparation for medical fee revisions, maintaining facility standards and distributing capital investment burdens through economies of scale, and leveraging tax benefits including transitions to specific medical corporations or social medical corporations.

Perspective from M&A Medical Editorial Department

FIXER’s support for hospital ICT implementation goes beyond mere system installation; it’s a strategic move capitalizing on the “tailwinds” of medical fee revisions. Especially now, when ICT adoption directly impacts preferential medical fee measures, this support is an unmissable option for hospitals aiming to maximize the ROI of their ICT investments and strengthen their management base. For instance, delays in implementing electronic health record systems or online patient verification systems can lead to risks from fluctuating revision rates and missed opportunities for management improvement through subsequent data utilization. FIXER’s support can mitigate these risks and serve as a stepping stone for distributing capital investment burdens through group consolidation and establishing tax schemes with future transitions to specific medical corporations or social medical corporations in mind. From an M&A Medical perspective, the development of an ICT infrastructure also suggests the potential for improved valuations during business succession and more favorable M&A negotiations.
