For Those Seeking
Emergency Outpatient (24-hour) Service

Unless it is urgent, please come during normal outpatient (daytime) hours.
Please inquire about emergency outpatient services if you require urgent care.

With emergency outpatient services, we can help outside of normal business hours or on weekends and holidays, but this does not mean that during these times we can provide the same level of treatment as during normal business hours. In order to confirm whether or not we can see you, please call ahead. Please note that if you come to the hospital without calling ahead, our doctors may be unable to see you, or you may have to wait a long time. We cannot guarantee that English and other foreign-language telephone support will be available at all times. We request your understanding in this matter.

What to bring with you to the hospital

Passport / Residence Card / Health Insurance Card (any one)
AND cash for a deposit

Emergency Outpatient
Points to Note

  1. 1 The order in which patients are seen is based on the severity of their condition

    Depending on such factors as how crowded the hospital is, the order may change slightly, and we may require those who are not severely ill or in need of urgent treatment to wait longer.

  2. 2 First-time patients will be examined by the Emergency Treatment Department doctor

    It differs from normal outpatient treatment in that during normal business hours an Emergency Department doctor sees patients, while afterhours it will be the on-call doctor.

  3. 3 Prescriptions are, as a general rule, for one day’s worth of medicine

    Patients who get prescriptions during afterhours or weekend/holiday service are given 1-day prescriptions as an emergency measure. You can get your medicine at the After-Hours Medicine Desk within the hospital.

    * If you suffer from the same symptoms for several days, it is recommended that you use the normal outpatient service, which is more likely to be able to provide you with sufficient examination and treatment and will allow you to make a reservation for reexamination later.
  4. 4 The medical bill will be higher than normal outpatient treatment

    The charge for emergency outpatient treatment includes additional costs for afterhours and/or weekend/holiday service, and so is more expensive than normal outpatient treatment.

  5. 5 We cannot guarantee all-hours
    English support

    As the need arises we may need to use an app to communicate. If you have someone who can translate, please have them accompany you.

  6. 6 Deposit to borrow crutches

    Patients who need to borrow crutches will need to make an additional deposit. Failure to return them will result in us claiming compensation to the value of ¥10,000.

Afterhours payment
(deposits)

On the day of your arrival at the hospital we will request a deposit of the following amount, with payment being finalized at a later date.
We do not accept payment by credit card outside of normal opening hours.

  • ¥5,000 (for those who have an insurance card)

  • ¥20,000 (for those who do not an insurance card)
