About Medical Consultations

    Such services are not offered at our hospital. Please ask at your local public health center.

About Reception and Payments

  • I would like to be seen at your hospital. How should I proceed?
    • See here for details.
  • I was seen at your hospital long ago. Which reception desk should I go to?
    Please come to the Reception Desk for Patient(s) with Referral [No. 30] or the Outpatient Reception Desk [No. 31] (Monday to Saturday, 8:15 a.m.–11:30 a.m.).
    At that time, please bring the necessary documents, including your patient registration card, health insurance card, and letter of referral.
  • Is it possible to be seen at your hospital without a letter of referral?
    It is possible for you to be seen by a doctor. However, we will give priority to those who have made appointments in advance, and those who require more urgent care.
    In addition, you may be required to pay an elective medical care fee of 7,700 yen (including tax), together with the regular medical fees.

    * From Monday to Saturday, the ophthalmology outpatient clinic accepts only new patients with a letter of referral.
    * We are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for those patients who are brought in by ambulance and those who are in need of emergency care.
  • I lost my patient registration card.
    Reissue costs will be charged to replace lost cards.
    (New patient registration cards have been introduced as of April 2020. See here for details.)
    Please ask at the Outpatient Reception Desk [No. 31].
  • I am scheduled for a test at your hospital soon. How much will it cost?
    Please consult the Outpatient Cashier [No. 32] with documents such as appointment slips showing what kind of tests are scheduled.
    We accept a wide range of credit cards and debit cards for payment.
     
  • Is it possible to make an appointment for first visits?
    It is not possible for you to make an appointment on your own.
    However, your family doctor may make an appointment for you through Medical Referral and Consultation Department of our hospital.
    (If you are currently receiving treatment at another medical institution, please consult your family doctor.)
  • I would like to change the time of my appointment.
    As a rule, changes in appointment times will be allowed only under inexorable circumstances, such as a worsening of the symptoms.
    If you wish to change the time of your appointment due to unavoidable reasons, please contact the Outpatient Clinic Appointment Change Center.

  • I am about to be hospitalized and am worried that the medical costs will be high. I would like to know more about the High-Cost Medical Expense Benefits Program.
    About the High-Cost
    Medical Expense Benefits Program
    (For Patients Under 70 Years of Age)
    This is a program in which, if the inpatient/outpatient medical fees you paid to hospitals during the span of one calendar month exceed a certain threshold (out-of-pocket payment ceiling), your insurance provider reimburses you for the amount exceeding that threshold, which is deemed a “high-cost medical expense.”
    As the contact points and application procedures differ depending on the type of health insurance, please contact your health insurance provider for details. * This program does not cover hospital meals, room surcharges, hospital gown rental fees, etc.
    About High-Cost
    Medical Expense Benefits Applied
    as Cash Payments
    (For Patients Under 70 Years of Age)
    For patients under the age of 70, upon presenting the “Eligibility Certificate for Ceiling-Amount Application,” the high-cost medical expense portion will be deducted from the patient’s inpatient/outpatient medical bill on the spot, leaving only the remainder (= the patient’s out-of-pocket payment ceiling) to be paid.
    If you have any questions or are experiencing any problems with payment, please contact the Reception Desk for Inpatient Admission or Medical Referral & Consultation Department.

About Visits by Family and Friends

  • I would like to visit a patient. When can I go in?
    Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, we are restricting all visits to patients to prevent infection within the hospital.
    However, visits may be allowed exceptional cases if deemed necessary for treatment, with the permission of the doctor.

  • An acquaintance has been hospitalized. Can I call to find out which room he/she is in?
    In order to protect the patient’s privacy, we cannot respond to inquiries over the phone.
    We provide information on visits in front of the central entrance during visiting hours for your convenience.
  • I would like to send a letter (in an envelope) to a hospitalized patient.
    There may be people with the same name and surname among the inpatients, so please write down where the patient is hospitalized in detail, including the ward and room number.
    In addition, please write the patient's name in full. 
  • Can I bring flowers on my visit to a patient?
    Some wards do not allow fresh flowers to be brought in. Please ask the ward nurse for details.
