Prohibition of Mixed Medical Treatment

Mixed medical treatment is not available at Kochi Medical Center.

‘Mixed medical treatment’ refers to a combination of insured and non-insured treatments (except for advanced medical treatments) throughout the treatment process of the same disease (including side effects), and is prohibited by law (Health Insurance Act).If you have received non-insured treatment at another medical institution, insured treatment related to the disease is therefore unavailable at Kochi Medical Center.
That is, when you received a non- insured treatment, you will bear all costs for the related treatments without the aid of health of insurance.
