For Those Who Have Japanese Public Health Insurance
About High-Cost Medical Expense Benefit

(Only for those who are less than 70 years old and have Japanese public health insurance)
This is the payment system for the limit-exceeded medical expense that you pay at medical facility or pharmacy in one month (from 1st to the end of that month). The cost for such as hospital meals or private room is not included. With applying for this system before/during hospitalization, the out-of-pocket medical expense you bear might be reduced at the discharge. For further details, please refer to the following links or ask your insurer.

<For Those Who Apply BEFORE/DURING Hospitalization>

If the medical expense is likely to be expensive, please apply for the certificate named “Gendogaku Tekiyo Ninteisho” to your insurer (e.g. municipalities, Society-Managed Health Insurance, or Japan Health Insurance Association, etc.) in advance. With the submission of certificate to the reception, you only need to pay up to the monthly out-of-pocket maximum according to your out-of-pocket category.

<For Those Who Apply AFTER Discharge>

Please pay your coinsurance first at the reception in the medical facility at your discharge. You can make a reimbursement claim directly to your insurer afterwards.

About the Expenses Not Covered by Health Insurance

We offer several supplies (such as diapers) or services (e.g. bedding for attendant or pajamas) on the viewpoint of the convenience for patients, but those are not directly relevant to the treatments covered by health insurance. Please understand that the cost for such services will be charged without coverage by health insurance along with the hospital charge.
