Introduction – Is it really “impossible”? ~ To all those who are struggling with change

I have invested in a dental corporation, but just as I was about to convert it to a medical corporation, the regulatory authorities refused to change the articles of incorporation.

I thought it was impossible to switch from dental to medical.

I thought it was impossible to switch from dentistry to medicine. I thought it was impossible to switch from dental to medical … . Thought that a dental medical corporation was useless … .

In recent years, we have received such comments from many judicial scriveners, tax accountants, medical practitioners, and general business owners.

It is natural that even those who are successful members of society are confused and anxious about the peculiarities of “medical corporation” procedures and paperwork.

But – please don’t worry.

Changing the articles of incorporation from a dental corporation to a medical corporation is legally “completely safe.

At Medical Gate, we have never had the government refuse to change the articles of incorporation.

With our extensive experience, correct knowledge, and know-how to build a relationship of trust with the government, the change of articles of incorporation is “a procedure that will always be approved.


What is an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation from a dental corporation to a medical corporation?

What is an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation?

An amendment to the articles of incorporation is an administrative procedure that is required when making important changes to the business purpose or business content of a medical corporation, and requires the approval of the prefectural governor or other regulatory body.

A change from “dental” to “medical” is a “change of business purpose.

A change from “dentistry” to “medicine” naturally requires careful examination by a supervisory agency because of the different nature of the medical business. However, it is “difficult,” not “impossible.

On the contrary, with a logical explanation and the necessary systems in place to comply with administrative requirements, approval will naturally follow.


Common Misconceptions and Reality Gaps

[Misconception 1] “It is legally impossible.”

→ Fact: It is possible. It is not illegal.

There is no law prohibiting the transition from a dental corporation to a medical corporation.

The majority of denials due to administrative action are due to inadequate procedures and documents, inconsistent business plans, and unfamiliarity with administrative action.

Myth 2: “If the supervisory authority rejects you, you’re done.”

→ Fact: It is possible to obtain approval as long as the correct procedures are followed.

We have never had an application to change our articles of incorporation rejected in the past.

The fact that we have never been rejected means that we have built documents, systems, and strategies that convinced the administration from the beginning. (For example, last year, at the request of a judicial scrivener, we approved an amendment to the articles of incorporation that had been rejected by the Osaka Prefectural Government.)


Proposed Solution: Turning “Impossible” into “Possible” in 3 steps.

(1) Accurate diagnosis of individual cases

  • Comprehensive analysis of the company’s articles of incorporation, existing board structure, capital structure, and purpose of conversion.
  • To eliminate risks in advance, diagnose from an administrative perspective whether the medical sector is prepared to take risks.

(Dialogue with the administration and rational approach.

  • Mere submission of documents is not enough to obtain administrative approval.
  • We will prepare explanatory materials, additional materials, hearings, etc. to convince the administration to approve the project with a logical basis.

(iii)Establish appropriate documents and systems

In order to obtain administrative approval, the following specific preparations will be made

  • Prepare a notification of closure of the dental corporation.
  • Clarification of the relationship between the chairman of the board of directors of the dental corporation and the medical director.
  • Procedures for the doctor to appoint the chairman and the managing director as directors, as well as procedures for changing their registration
  • Preparation of budget and income/expense plan as a medical corporation
  • Description of facilities, equipment and management system for each medical specialty
