Tuberculosis elementary school studenｔ Nursing Care medical care benefits

I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy to all those affected by the Noto Peninsula Earthquake that occurred on January 1, 2024.
Since the Disaster Relief Law has been applied in some areas of Niigata, Toyama, Ishikawa and Fukui prefectures, the handling of publicly funded medical care (care for nursing care) when affected people are evacuated to Motoichi Will be announced as follows.

You may be able to have a medical examination by claiming your name, date of birth, Address, etc. because your health insurance card or nursing ticket may be lost or evacuated while leaving it in your house.

In case of emergency, medical institutions other than the designated medical institution can also be consulted.

　For those who have bone joint tuberculosis and other tuberculosis and need hospitalization, the city pays the medical expenses necessary for the treatment and provides learning supplies and daily necessities.
　In addition, co-payments will be incurred depending on the household's income tax amount.
　However, you cannot receive this system if you are not a designated nursing medical institution.
※Please contact your medical institution or Health and Social Welfare Bureau Medical Aid Division to see if the hospital where your child is hospitalized is a designated nursing care institution.
