Katsushika City covers the cost of newborn hearing screening, which checks the hearing of newborn babies. The subsidy is once per child, up to ¥3,000. A checkup voucher is given when the Maternal and Child Health Handbook is issued, and it can be used as is at contracted medical institutions in Tokyo. In principle, use it within 1 month after birth (within 50 days after birth). If you had the screening at a medical institution outside Tokyo, for example when giving birth in your hometown, you can be reimbursed later by applying.
