QuestionI am returning home for childbirth. Which hospital can I receive prenatal checkups at?

Response

In Tokyo, at most medical institutions with obstetrics and gynecology, you can receive prenatal checkups using the pregnancy health checkup examination ticket.
For medical institutions and midwifery facilities outside the city, please undergo a pregnancy health checkup and apply for the "Subsidy for Pregnancy Health Checkup Expenses for Returning Home after Childbirth" after delivery. For details, please check the flyer enclosed in the Mother and Child Health Pack or visit the page for "Subsidy for Pregnancy Health Checkup and Newborn Hearing Test Expenses".
