Located in Sarabetsu Village, Kasai District, Hokkaido, the Sarabetsu Village National Health Insurance Clinic is a medical facility providing internal medicine services to support the health of local residents. Under the leadership of Director Kosuke Yamada, the clinic actively promotes the digitalization of healthcare based on the village's Super Village initiative, working to establish a cutting-edge medical system utilizing My Number cards. In addition to regular medical care, the clinic conducts "health seminars" during the winter months, visiting various areas to promote health improvement activities, demonstrating its commitment to preventive medicine. The clinic also offers comprehensive health management services, including influenza and COVID-19 vaccinations, and post-examination follow-ups. The facility is equipped with English-speaking capabilities and features a barrier-free design, creating an environment that accommodates diverse patient needs. With ample parking available, access by car is convenient. While the clinic is closed on weekends, national holidays, and during the New Year period, it maintains a system to respond to sudden illnesses or injuries even during closed hours, fulfilling its role as the last bastion of community healthcare. In September 2025, the clinic launched a new website, striving to improve medical services in line with the times by providing more accessible information.
