Medi Face Co., Ltd. Fully Renews Akō Chūō Hospital's Official Website, Building a Next-Generation Hospital Platform Integrating Over 60 Years of History with "Medical DX"

Medi Face Co., Ltd., responsible for IT and DX solutions within the Hōōkai Group, has completed the full renewal of the official website for Akō Chūō Hospital, located in Akō City, Hyogo Prefecture. Akō Chūō Hospital, founded as "Kojō Geka" in 1962, boasts over 60 years of history and serves as a vital hub in the Seiban-Harima region. It is also the headquarters of the Hakuho-kai Group, one of Japan's largest comprehensive medical and welfare networks, which operates hospitals across Hyogo, Osaka, and Tokyo, providing acute, recovery, advanced (e.g., proton therapy) medical care, welfare, and medical education. The website renewal, completed in 2026, is a significant step in the Hakuho-kai Group's strategy for further expansion and advanced integration of medical, nursing care, and education. Key features of the renewal include: clear visualization of acute/recovery period collaboration pathways, provision of a smart patient experience through improved accessibility and real-time information, and enhanced multilingual support for foreign residents and inbound patients to promote "medical universal design." This project is positioned as a model case for DX in regional core hospitals. Medi Face's vision is "Making healthcare smarter. A healthy future through DX," and the company also develops and provides the "AI Doctor" facial recognition system for corporate health management.
