 Medical Checkups during Pregnancy

You will receive Prenatal Checkup Coupons (Ninpu Kenkou Shinsa Jushin Ken) (14 coupons) along with your Maternal and Child Health Handbook as public funding for your medical checkups. You can use these coupons to lower the cost of fees at hospitals or maternity centers in Osaka Prefecture (some hospitals may not accept these coupons).

  • Generally, you use the first coupon when you get a blood test.
  • The 2nd to 14th coupons can be used at any time throughout your pregnancy.
  • In case of multiple birth pregnancies, the cost of fees for the 15th to 19th visits can also be lowered.
  • If the cost of your pregnancy medical checkups is higher than the public subsidy, you will need to pay the remaining costs (money) yourself.

  • Refund System

    If you are pregnant and get a prenatal checkup from a medical facility outside of Osaka prefecture, you can apply to the Minoh City refund system for a partial refund of the fees (money). You may receive the money you paid back, up to the value of the remaining subsidy (this is called the Refund system (Kanpu Seido)).

    How to apply

    Please apply at the Healthy Children Division (City Office Annex Building 2F), within one year of the checkup.

    (1) Application: You must apply for a Prenatal Checkup Subsidy (Ninpu Kenkou Shinsahi Josei Kin).

    (2) What you need to apply: receipts, a detailed statement, your Maternal and Child Health Handbook, proof of your bank account number, and any Prenatal Checkup Coupons that you have not used.

    (3) Amount of refund: You will receive either the cost of the medical checkup or the value of the remaining subsidy, whichever is less.
