Medical costs for single-parent households are 10% for taxed households and free for tax-exempt households

This program reduces the out-of-pocket cost when parents and children in single-parent households see a doctor. You use it by showing the "Maru-Oya" medical certificate at the counter. For households paying resident tax, both outpatient and inpatient care are 10%. The monthly out-of-pocket limit is ¥18,000 for outpatient only (¥144,000 a year), ¥57,600 including inpatient care (¥44,400 if the multiple-high-cost rule applies), and ¥57,600 for the household total. Meal and living costs during hospital stays are also charged. For households exempt from resident tax, there is no outpatient out-of-pocket cost, and during hospital stays only meal and living costs are charged. There is an income limit. The income limit for the father or mother (including guardians raising children who are not orphans) is ¥2,080,000 with 0 dependents, ¥2,460,000 with 1, ¥2,840,000 with 2, ¥3,220,000 with 3, and from the 4th, ¥380,000 is added per person. Eligible children are until the end of March after their 18th birthday (under 20 for children with a moderate or more severe disability).
