❓ FAQ
When can I start using this assistance?
Submit the application right after birth registration. It's efficient to do both on the same day. It becomes effective from the day of birth or move-in.
Up to what age is covered?
In Ota City, it covers up to junior high school graduation (March 31st of the 15-year-old year). Check the website for high school expansions.
Is the payment strictly zero at the counter?
For insurance-covered treatments, it is generally zero out-of-pocket. However, non-insurance items (like bed upgrade fees or self-pay dentistry) are not covered.
What if I move to another city?
Ota City's assistance ends when you move out. Apply for the new city's equivalent program at the time of your move-in notification.
