The Landshut municipal company for medical care , or Lakumed for short (proper spelling La.KUMed), is a municipal company in the Landshut district that operates the district hospitals and other medical facilities in the district. It was founded in 2000 as an amalgamation of the district hospitals Landshut-Achdorf, Vilsbiburg and Schlossklinik Rottenburg, which until then had been run as independent administrative operations of the district.
