I took a PCR test in Japan and got a negative certificate in order to return to the U.S. last month, but it cost me 20,000 yen in total.
Why is the covid-test free in the US, but so expensive in Japan?

The US is not free either. Insurance just covers it. By the way, special negative proof to Hawaii is $ 250.

20,000 is cheap ! My friend had a family of five that cost over 150,000.

I paid $ 40 on copay for insurance
when I did the test with immediate results.
At LAX, I saw $ 125 or so on the news. Vaccinations were free.

The insurance will cover the PCR test for novel coronavirus infection on March 6th, 2011. The fee for the test is 18,000 yen
per test ( and 13,500 yen
) if the specimen is not transported to the laboratory, and a test decision fee of 1,500 yen is added. The self-paid portion of the test fee ( 30%* )
is basically treated as public expense regardless of the test result, and the remaining ( 70% ) is borne by the health insurance
, which means that the patient does not have to pay any fee.
However, the first and second visit fees, etc. are not included in the public expenditure ( and the patient must pay
his or her own medical fees except for examinations ).


In both the U.S. and Japan, if you don't pay health insurance premiums, you have to pay the full amount.

You don't like it because it's free ?
Flu vaccine is free too,
You don't like it if it costs ?

When I went to the SoFi stadium, the test was free. And I got the results the next morning.

I also free at the CVS drive in.
A simple test where you get a kit and swab the back of your nose yourself and give it to the window.
I was told it would be 2 days, but the next day I got a call on my phone with "Negative" in capitals. I had never been to CVS before, but suddenly I liked it.
I wonder if they charge extra for travel ? ?

I'm really annoyed with the receptionists and nurses who ask me 3 or 4 times in one routine checkup if the flu shot is free ? or if it's because the hospital gets paid ? or if I really don't get it ? every time. I've never had the flu, though I've never had a flu shot, and maybe that one time a few years ago when I might have had the flu, but I worked normally. As you can imagine, I got flustered when I went to the gym, so I stopped exercising. By the way, I hear good people around me say they got the flu for the first time after taking a flu shot.

Maybe that was the flu, I had one time a few years ago when it might have been the flu, but I worked normally. As expected, I got flustered when I went to the gym, so I stopped exercising. Idiots like this are the reason the flu and corona will never end.

Build a body that can be infected with a virus and not be affected by it. Those who eat cheap food and do not take care of themselves are prey to viruses. I don't care what lazy people say.

Even people who eat expensive food and take care of themselves can get it ?
The problem is that these idiots are spreading the infection around without realizing it ? You still don't understand what's happening ?
You're a nuisance, how self-centered you are ?.
