At the meeting of the Komeito Party, there were a series of opinions calling for careful consideration regarding the government's consideration of raising the burden of contacts at hospitals for people over 75 years old from 10% to 20% in principle.
In order to realize the all-generation social security system, the government is considering the way to raise the contact burden at hospitals for elderly people over 75 years old from 10% to 20% in principle.
Regarding this, at the meeting of the Komeito Party held on the 2nd, there were a series of opinions demanding careful consideration, such as “It is difficult to raise because the burden on the patient increases.”
The government asked the government to submit the data because the discussion would not deepen if there was no data calculated by income to see how much impact would be caused when the contact burden was raised to 20%.
The Komeito Party will compile recommendations that include medical system reforms starting next week, and the government's review meeting wants it to be reflected in the interim report compiled this month.
