Can Kawasaki disease insurance be claimed?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Can Kawasaki disease insurance be claimed?

Doctor's answer:

Kawasaki disease is prepayable, but Kawasaki disease requires the use of immunoglobulin, which may be covered by public funds and cannot be prepaid. It is necessary to confirm according to the specific regulations of the local hospital. Immunoglobulin is relatively expensive. Children with Kawasaki disease need to rest more and avoid strenuous exercise to prevent the rupture of coronary aneurysms, which may lead to severe bleeding. Regular follow-up examinations should be conducted.
