The best hospitals in Japan are basically concentrated in Tokyo, such as Kanyan Youming Hospital, the best specialist hospital for cancer treatment, Japan Shenyuan Memorial Hospital, the best hospital for heart disease treatment, and Japan Medical University Hospital and Tammy Hospital. At present, the most authoritative statistical data of patient consultation is the statistics of the number of operations, consultation and treatment in Japanese hospitals in Yomiuri Shimbun, which is the strongest proof of the strength of each hospital.
Organize and translate medical records
Medical records needed to go abroad for medical treatment include:
(1) medical record summary (preferably by the attending doctor, including the condition, the treatment measures taken and the effects achieved).
② Radioimaging reports, including X-ray, CT scan, ultrasound, bone scan, molybdenum target photography and magnetic resonance imaging. ③ Surgical report.
④ Laboratory report.
⑤ Summary of medical history and treatment history, including records of chemotherapy and radiotherapy (preferably compiled by your doctor).
The more complete the above materials, the better. No, everything must be indispensable. The most important thing is the summary of medical records and recent radiology reports written by doctors. Medical record translation is the first step of going abroad for medical consultation, which is particularly important. The translated medical records must be accurate, and patients and their families must find a professional medical translation company, because many foreign language workers without medical background can't be used for pathological diagnosis at all, so that foreign doctors can't understand the medical records and have to spend money to check them. The key is to delay time and bring pain to patients.
Make an appointment with the hospital and apply for a visa.
Japanese hospitals implement a graded diagnosis and treatment system and an appointment system for medical treatment. Domestic medical treatment is basically solved in primary clinics. If there are incurable diseases, primary hospitals will make an appointment with large hospitals and issue a referral certificate. Patients will go to big hospitals with referral letters.
You need to make an appointment to see a doctor in Japan, which is very different from seeing a doctor in China. Even if it is a physical examination, you need to make an appointment in advance in a Japanese hospital. It should be noted that at present, most hospitals in Japan do not have an international department, and they also lack the experience of docking with international patients. Some hospitals don't even accept international patients' application for appointment, so Japanese patients, especially the seriously ill patients, should not blindly go to China for treatment without the consent of the hospital for appointment. Especially when applying for a Japanese medical visa, you need to provide an appointment letter issued by a Japanese hospital and a "body guarantee" issued by a body guarantee agency, which is very different from applying for a tourist visa directly when going to the United States for medical treatment. Japanese hospitals implement a "post-payment system", so it is necessary for a "body guarantee institution" to issue such a guarantee. The institutions that can obtain the "Overseas Medical Identity Assurance License" jointly issued by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are generally Japanese domestic enterprises, and the government should be very strict in assessing the applicant institutions, including the number of hospitals established for two years, the number of patients received, the number of contracted hospitals, service processes, norms, patient information protection, complaint rate, etc.
