Many private hospitals seem to have business licenses called * * Hospital Co., Ltd., are this limited company and the hospital legal subjects?

The classification of hospitals is very complicated. General public hospitals do not have business licenses, and only medical institutions have practice licenses, which are filed with the Health Bureau. Private non-profit hospitals are licensed by the Civil Affairs Bureau. Only private for-profit hospitals are business licenses issued by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. This is the essence of the company. It is called * * Hospital Co., Ltd., but it is generally called * * Hospital.
