Until the end of the fiscal year of age 18, no co-payment for insurance-covered care
- No payment at the counter at medical institutions in Tokyo
- Vaccinations, checkups and meal costs during a hospital stay are excluded
When children registered as residents of Musashino City, from age 0 until the end of the fiscal year in which they turn 18, receive insurance-covered care at hospitals and similar, the city subsidizes the co-payment. Preschool children receive the Maru-Nyu medical certificate, elementary and junior high school students Maru-Ko, and those from junior high school graduation until the end of the fiscal year of age 18 Maru-Sei; at medical institutions in Tokyo, if you show it with your My Number health insurance card, there is no payment at the counter for insurance-covered care. Costs not covered by insurance, such as vaccinations, checkups, meal costs during a hospital stay and private room charges, are excluded. If you apply within 2 months of birth or moving in, the subsidy applies retroactively from that date. If you see a doctor outside Tokyo, apply for a refund by mail.
