Japan is the world’s most aged country, with more than 26% of its total population aged 65 years or over. With growing westernization, the percentage of elderly people living with their children has decreased in Japan. Moreover, there is an increasing participation of women in the workforce.

In addition, rising number of nuclear families & working women has resulted in an increased demand for LTC in the country. Long-Term Care Insurance (LTCI) was introduced in April 2000 in Japan and is considered to be one of the most efficient insurance systems in the world. The system is based partially on a tax-funded and insurance-based model.

Every individual has to pay a premium to LTCI from the age of 40 years onwards. This premium is based on income level and residence area. An individual becomes entitled to benefits, including home-based help & nursing facilities, of the insurance at the age of 65.
