Fujitsu AI drives healthcare transformation in Iki City

Fujitsu announced the successful completion of a pilot project with Social Medical Corporation Genshukai in Iki City, Nagasaki Prefecture, aimed at promoting sustainable hospital management through AI-driven profitability improvement and advanced management. The project, conducted from July to September 2025, leveraged Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS, an operational platform utilizing data and AI from Fujitsu’s Uvance business model rooted in the resolution of social issues, to develop a hospital management solution in just three months.

This solution enabled Genshukai to efficiently allocate management resources by flexibly integrating medical data scattered across its internal and external systems. As a result, Genshukai estimates annual revenue growth of approximately 10%.

Fujitsu plans to expand this initiative to other facilities within the Genshukai Group, contributing to regional medical optimization and stable hospital management. Furthermore, Fujitsu will continuously enhance the hospital management solution, targeting expanded utilization in the fields of medical, nursing care, and home care services.

Fujitsu also aims to deploy the developed hospital management solution to other medical institutions in Japan by the end of 2026.

Moving forward, under its Uvance business model, Fujitsu will continue to leverage data and AI to advance the management of medical institutions in Japan, not limited to medical care in local areas, and contribute to the provision of sustainable healthcare.

Genshukai plays a central role in regional medical care in Iki City, operating three divisions comprising 16 facilities such as Mitsutake Hospital with 88 beds, a nursing home, and home care service.

Facing a challenging management environment where approximately 70% of hospitals in Japan operate at a deficit*1 Genshukai urgently needed to reduce medical fee repayments caused by the complexity of the medical fee system and maximize revenue through optimized bed utilization to ensure the continuous provision of regional medical care. Specifically, facility standards in the medical fee system detail requirements such as the number of nursing staff per patient, patient home-return rates, medical equipment inspection records, and patient explanation records, all of which are subject to revision. Non-compliance can result in the need to return medical fees, making adherence crucial for efficient hospital management.

In response to these challenges, Fujitsu developed a hospital management solution utilizing Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS, drawing on its extensive operational expertise gained through developing electronic medical record systems and other healthcare business solutions.
