Using your My Number card as a health insurance card

Starting December 2, 2024, issuance of the current health insurance cards will cease and we will move to a system based on using My Number cards as health insurance cards.
Note: Using your My Number card can only be done at medical institutions and pharmacies that have a card reader installed.
Note: You can still receive medical treatment with your health insurance card as usual.
Note: Initial registration is required to use your health insurance card.

You can view "specific health checkup information" and "drug information" from Mynaportal.

You can view your specific health checkup information and drug information on Mynaportal.
In addition, if you give your consent, medical institutions, etc. will be able to view specific health checkup information and information on drugs you have taken.
The quality of medical care can be improved by being able to diagnose and prescribe according to your own information.

There will be no need to make lump-sum payments above the limit at medical institutions or pharmacies.

If you have registered your health insurance card on your My Number card and use a medical institution that can verify your medical insurance eligibility online, you will not need to present a "Limit Applicable Certificate" or similar document.
