Direct payment system
The health insurance association can pay the lump-sum birth allowance directly to the delivery institution, etc., simply by exchanging an agreement with the delivery institution that gives birth.
As a result, please pay only the amount exceeding the lump-sum birth allowance to the delivery institution.
If the cost of childbirth is less than the lump-sum birth allowance, the difference will be paid by the Health Insurance Society.
Receiving agency system
Even if you give birth at a small delivery institution that does not have a direct payment system, you can apply in advance to the Health Insurance Society that the agent who will receive the lump-sum birth allowance will be the delivery institution where you plan to give birth. The cost burden is reduced.
It can be used at some small delivery institutions that have notified the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
Note) If you are giving birth overseas, please contact the Health Insurance Society.
