specialized medical service
Explanation:
I'd say that's one possibility.

Die Stadt Greiz verfügt neben einem dichten Netz freiberuflicher
Arztpraxen mit der Kreiskrankenhaus Greiz GmbH über ein
Krankenhaus mit überregionaler Schwerpunktversorgung. In
über 375 Betten können in 7 Kliniken und 3 Fachabteilungen
die Patienten versorgt werden. Die ambulante Versorgung der
Patienten wird durch eine Vielzahl von niedergelassenen Fachund
Zahnärzten garantiert. Weiterhin besitzt Greiz mit der
Pro-Leben GmbH ein Zentrum der Alternativmedizin.

Greiz has a close-knit network of freelance doctors. The
Kreiskrankenhaus Greiz GmbH district hospital provides
specialized medical service not only to the population of Greiz
but also of other communities. Seven hospitals and 3
specialized wards with over 375 beds add to number of the
medical facilities. Out-patients are treated by a large number
of registered doctors and dentists. Pro-Leben GmbH is a

I opted for specialized medical care. But Ivo also has a point. In any case, the job is gone, and I don't think my solution is wrong, as überregional may be implied by the nature of services offered.
Thanks to everybody.
