Taipei City Hospital is a full-service medical institution that provides comprehensive care for Taipei's 2.6 million residents. The merger of ten municipal hospitals into one unit has made the Taipei City Hospital (TPECH) the largest healthcare organization in Northern Taiwan.

Community-based healthcare is the focus of reform and TPECH is actively encouraging citizens to first seek out local clinics and pharmacies to treat minor illnesses and discomfort. This approach allows for referrals to higher level treatment if necessary and reduces the strain on hospitals and specialty-care institutions. In so doing, the aim is to ensure that a higher level of quality healthcare is provided to all citizens.

By combining human resources and materials, it has been possible to reduce overhead costs, eliminate duplicate positions and simplify procedures. Unifying the logistics of running medical institutions and creating bulk purchasing has resulted in lower costs for everything from office supplies to pharmaceutical products to medical devices.
