When I lived in Japan I paid into the gov’t health insurance system, as everybody else as some sort of coverage is required of most anyone. Even when not working… though if you are unemployed or below a certain income one pays less.

It was not expensive.

OTOH, you didn’t get that much either…

If I remember correctly, doctor visits there cost a bit more than they do here under my American insurance program, but the national insurance there cost less than my plan here.
