Summary

The e-Gov law update list shows an entry for the Act on Special Assistance to War-Wounded and Sick Persons (Act No. 168 of 1963), amended by the Act Partially Amending the Medical Care Act and Other Acts (Reiwa 7 Act No. 87). The metadata lists a promulgation date of 2025-12-12 and a scheduled enforcement date of 2026-10-01. The specific content of the amendment to this law is not provided in the metadata.

Business Impact

Because the amending act is a broad medical-care revision, the entry may be relevant to healthcare-related organizations, though the actual effect on the War-Wounded Relief Act and on businesses cannot be determined from the metadata alone.

Recommended Action

Review the official Japanese text on e-Gov, including the supplementary provisions, to confirm the scope of the amendment and its enforcement date.
