Among them, the complete list of medical insurance institutions with identity protection qualifications in Japan can be found on the website of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When Japanese identity guarantee companies guarantee foreign patients, they need each patient and their families to pay a deposit as a guarantee. If the patient violates the safeguard agreement during the treatment in Japan, the deposit will be confiscated. If the patient is successfully treated in Japan, the deposit will be refunded after the patient's visa expires.
Extended data:
Visa types There are single and multiple medical visas in Japan, which generally depend on the applicant's illness and treatment plan. A single medical visa is 1 visit to Japan, and multiple medical visas are multiple trips for up to three years, most of which are 1 year.
In addition to the relatives of patients, non-relatives can also accompany them and issue medical visas. The stay time of the medical visa of the escort is the same as that of the patient visa.
The visa is valid for 1 year. Single visa: a single visit to Japan within 3 months after obtaining a visa; 1 year multiple visas: you can go to Japan multiple times within 1 year after obtaining a visa; Multiple visas for three years: you can go to Japan many times within three years after you get a visa.
Detention time generally stipulates that the longest detention time is 90 days. According to the needs of treatment, hospitalized patients need to stay in Japan for a long time, up to 180 days. The length of detention is determined by the visa issuing authority according to the patient's specific condition.
If you expect to stay in hospital for more than 90 days, hospitalization must be the premise. Foreign patients must obtain a "stay qualification certificate" from the Immigration Bureau of the Ministry of Justice through the staff of the medical institution where they are hospitalized or their relatives living in Japan.
