What is a long-term care insurance contribution ratio certificate?

Long-term care services and long-term care prevention/life support service businesses require users to bear a certain percentage of the cost.
The long-term care insurance burden ratio certificate informs the user of the burden ratio when using long-term care services, preventive care, and life support services.

Present it when using the service

Keep the burden ratio certificate together with the long-term care insurance certificate, and be sure to present both to the service provider or facility when using nursing care services.
