High-cost medical treatment system

If you receive treatment at a medical institution, you will pay the patient's medical expenses (partial co-payment).In the case of major surgery, etc. or long-term hospitalization, the co-payment will be high and the burden on the patient or family will be large.In this way, the high-cost medical care benefit system is a system in which the patient's copayment amount is reduced when medical costs exceed a certain amount (copayment limit).

In addition, if you use the ceiling amount certification system, you can pay up to the following copayment ceiling amount for the month in question.
