The Hospital is in the Northern District of Tainan City with convenient traffic and a booming and profound cultural life. With outstanding physicians at the Hospital, we provide medical, educational and research services showing excellent achievement. Since opening, our finance was self-sufficient under both the Labor Insurance system and self-paid medical services. However, after thoroughly implemented both National Health Insurance in March 1994 and the outstanding program of Autonomous Management in August 2004, the operation of Hospital has had to be adjusted accordingly. We have proudly adapted to the changes well. Our financial management is excellent, and the Hospital is accredited to be the model of excellent operation in Taiwan that other medical centers can learn from.
