Fee for Treatment of Patients' Choice

For first-time patients who visit this hospital without a referral letter from another clinic or hospital, we will charge a fee of 5,400yen (not covered by health insurance, including tax) for treatment of patient’s choice, in addition to your medical fees.
This fee is required for all first-time patients who do not have a referral, due to the policy by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, which was made to coordinate the allocation of functions and activities among medical institutions. We therefore ask patients to bring referral letters if possible.

The following patients will be considered as first-time patients that must pay the fee for treatment of patient’s choice:

• Patients who are visiting this hospital for the first-time
• Patients who visited the hospital before, but are not currently seeing any doctors here (usually for patients who have not visited this hospital during the past three months)
• Patients who received a referral letter from another medical institution but forgot to bring it on the day of their consultation.

The following patients will not be charged with the fee for treatment of patient’s choice, even if it is their first time visiting this hospital:

• Patients who have referral letters from another medical institution
• Patients who are currently receiving treatment for chronic diseases
• Patients who are beneficiaries of public welfare services
• Patients who are visiting another department at this hospital
• Patients who have been injured due to their work or while on public duty
• Patients who are in emergency situations or who have been transported to this hospital by an ambulance
