Minato City adds up to ¥300,000 per cycle for residents' IVF, advanced medical care and non-insured treatment
- Up to 6 times if the wife is under 40, up to 3 times if 40 or older
- Treatment together with IVF or ICSI is covered
When a couple living in Minato City receives "advanced medical care" or "non-insured treatment" together with IVF or ICSI, Minato City subsidizes up to ¥300,000 per treatment cycle. It can be received together with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Specified Fertility Treatment Cost (Advanced Medical Care) Subsidy Program, and Minato City pays the remainder after subtracting the Tokyo subsidy.
The requirements are: (1) the wife is under 43 on the start date of each treatment cycle, (2) the couple is married from the treatment start date to the application date (common-law marriage is also covered), (3) both or one of the couple has an address in Minato City continuously from the treatment start date to the application date, (4) if only one partner lives in Minato City, that partner's income is higher than the other's, and (5) if covered by the Tokyo subsidy, you have received Tokyo's grant decision.
The application deadline is the last day of the fiscal year that includes the day one treatment cycle ended (postmark counts; for treatment that ended in January–March, until June 30). If Tokyo's approval decision notice has not arrived by the deadline, apply with a note stating this. Applications after the deadline are not accepted. The only application office is the Minato Public Health Center (not the general branch offices), and you can apply by mail, at the counter or online.
The number of subsidies is up to 6 if the wife was under 40 on the start date of the first advanced medical care or non-insured treatment, and up to 3 if she was 40 or older. If you give birth after receiving the subsidy, or have a stillbirth at 12 weeks of pregnancy or later, the count is reset, and the first treatment received after that is counted as the 1st again.
