2.Supported treatment and subsidy amount
We will provide subsidies if you undergo a series of infertility treatments that fall under either (1) or (2) below, which are covered by medical insurance and advanced medical care (in vitro fertilization) and (microinsemination).
(1) Combined treatment with medical insurance coverage [advanced medical care (not covered by medical insurance)]
If a person falls under the target age and number of subsidies (Note 1) for which medical insurance for infertility treatment is applied, and receives "advanced medical treatment (not covered by medical insurance)", the maximum amount is 30,000 yen per treatment (Note 2). (If advanced medical expenses are less than 30,000 yen, up to that amount).
(Note 1) Medical insurance will cover up to 6 treatments per child if the woman is under 40 years old at the time of treatment initiation, and up to 3 treatments per child if the woman is over 40 years old and under 43 years old.
(Note 2) The method of counting one time is based on the Tokyo Metropolitan Specified Infertility Treatment Expenses (Advanced Medical Care) Subsidy Project ((1) only).
(2) [Self-paid medical treatment] (unlimited number of times, under 45 years old)
If you receive "self-pay medical treatment" or "advanced medical treatment (if performed)" due to exceeding the age and number of times limits listed in (1) above for which medical insurance for infertility treatment is applied, you can receive up to 30,000 yen per treatment. We will provide a grant of Yen (unlimited number of times).
Note: The series of infertility treatments refers to the process of infertility treatment from "egg collection" or "thawing of embryos" for frozen embryo transfer to "confirmation of pregnancy", etc.
