A: はい、可能です。ただし、「保険証がない」場合は、以下の①と②の 2つのタイプによって、判断させて頂いております。特にCVICでは、日本在住の方や外国人の方ということで、検査そのものの料金が変わることはなくこの2つのタイプによって、変わります。ただし、検査以外のサービス（通訳、翻訳、レポートの特別送付、その他サービス）は、ご受診者様やお客様の要望などにより、付加されます。 （※この2つのタイプは、CVICにて受診または検査をいただくご本人様についての基準です。） 　①：保険証はないが”間違いなく日本の公的医療保険の資格保持者である場合” ≒ 自宅に忘れてきた（保険証忘れ）、紛失して再発行をお願いしているなど 　②：そもそも日本の公的医療保険の資格保持者ではない場合

例）CVIC以外の医療機関や医師からの紹介によって、当院へ「心臓ドック」などの自由診療プランへの紹介があった場合、①及び②とも料金が変わることはありません。同じく、紹介によって当院へ「心臓MRI」などの保険診療に準じた紹介があった場合、 ①の方は、日本の公的医療保険の料金算定方法に従い、「10割」分のご精算をいたします。負担額の割戻しを申請される場合は、加入する健保組合や自治体の担当窓口のホームページなどに従い申請をいただければ、負担割合に応じた割戻しがうけられます。 ②の方は、CVICの「自費診療」の料金表に従い、当日のご精算をいたします。おおよそ、「心臓ドック」と同等の費用もしくは、行う検査によってそれ以上の料金となります。（日本の公的医療保険の料金算定方法と全く異なります。）

A: Yes, it is possible. However, when there is no insurance card, we make decisions based on two types as follows. At CVIC, the cost of the tests themselves does not vary based on whether you are a resident of Japan or a foreign national; it varies based on these two types. However, additional services (such as interpretation, translation, special delivery of reports, and other services) may be added depending on the patient's or customer's requests.

(Note: These two types are criteria concerning the individual undergoing consultation or tests at CVIC.)

One： You do not have an insurance card but are “definitely a holder of Japan’s public health insurance” = For instance, you forgot it at home or have lost it and are requesting a reissue.

Two： You are not a holder of Japan’s public health insurance at all.
