Regarding the use of My Number Card as a health insurance card, there were a series of troubles such as being unable to confirm patient information at some medical institutions that started operation in advance, and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare planned full-scale nationwide from the end of March. It turned out that we have decided to postpone the operation.

The use of My Number Card as a health insurance card began in March at 54 medical institutions in 24 prefectures, and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare planned full-scale operation nationwide from the end of this month.



However, at some medical institutions that started operation in advance,


▽ "Insurance qualification information is not registered" is displayed or


It does not

match the information written on the health insurance card, and the


patient's I found that there were a series of troubles where I could not confirm the information.



For this reason, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has decided to postpone full-scale operation from the end of March.



The cause of the trouble seems to be that the health insurance association that operates medical insurance entered the subscriber's information in the wrong way.



The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare wants to gradually increase the number of medical institutions that can be used while verifying that patient information is registered correctly.
