10% for taxed households (outpatient ¥18,000/month, inpatient ¥57,600/month); no cost for tax-exempt households
This program covers the out-of-pocket share of insured care for single-parent families living in Kita City (mother-child, father-child, and guardian households) raising children until the first March 31 after turning 18, and for those children. For households paying resident tax, the share is 10%, with monthly limits of ¥18,000 for outpatient care and ¥57,600 for inpatient care. Tax-exempt households pay nothing for both outpatient and inpatient care. If the child has a physical disability certificate grade 1-3 or an Ai-no-Techō (intellectual disability certificate) grade 1-3, eligibility extends until the day before their 20th birthday. There is an income limit, and you are not eligible if you exceed the standard based on the number of dependents. Show the Maru-Oya medical certificate together with your health insurance card to have it applied at the counter.
