Within a year or so, the government will also create a list of hospitals that are willing to accept medical tourists from abroad. Some 300 hospitals in Japan have already expressed interest in being accredited as what has been tentatively called the “Japan International Hospital,” Fujimoto said.
Such patients can be charged much higher fees than domestic patients covered by public health insurance, and increasing their numbers would allow hospitals to make a profit, he added.
The government believes Japan’s health care industry can potentially access ¥20 trillion of the global market for medical services, assuming 5 percent of the affluent class around the world would buy health care services and equipment from Japan.
