diagnostic and medical errors over the years.

2. I would appreciate it if you could tell me
which doctors in Los Angeles are good at colonoscopy without pain
.

3. I would like to ask about medical insurance,
if I am a traveler and already have symptoms,
I cannot get medical insurance ？.

If you are a traveler, would it be safer to receive treatment in Japanese back in your country
rather than worrying about the language in a foreign country? If I am a traveler, can I purchase traveler's insurance upon entering the U.S.?

1 ， Dr. Shimizu is at The View Dental Specialty Center. He has helped me a lot with root canal treatment and other treatments. He is a very good doctor.
2 ， I had a colonoscopy about a year ago. Dr. Chester Zahn performed the colonoscopy and it was completely painless.

"Remaining root extraction" I don't understand. If you extract a tooth, there won't be any root left.
Don't you do root canal treatment without extracting the tooth, leaving the root ？
There are root canal treatment specialists in Japan these days. I know of one in Nagoya. We only accept referral patients from general dentists. Of course, it is self-pay treatment.

In the U.S., specialties are separated, so doctors who do this and that are ？.
There are many general dentists who speak Japanese, so if you go to one of them and ask for a consultation,
they will refer you to an appropriate specialist. If you ask for a letter of referral and explanation
at that time, you may feel comfortable even with a specialist who does not speak Japanese.
There used to be a Japanese-American root canal specialist in Montebello.
Dr. did not speak Japanese, but his wife, the receptionist, did.

I think that even travelers can get insurance, but it may not be available immediately ？
Besides, isn't the amount of dental insurance coverage fixed ？ and isn't the Japanese National Health Insurance special, which covers both medical and dental
and is available immediately after you get in?

And dental insurance has a fixed amount of coverage. You mentioned painless colonoscopists, but in the U.S. it is common to use general anesthesia
so pain is not a factor.

I had a misunderstanding about "remaining root extraction."
So you are not leaving the root, but extracting the remaining root? My apologies for my lack of knowledge. I will correct it.

It used to be much easier to apply for permanent residency.
"Visa expired" then you could only get a permanent residence visa, so you applied for a green card.

There was no limit to the number of applications for lottery permanent residence, and each person could apply for as many as they wanted.
A friend of mine printed about 2,000 applications and won.

I wonder if the people who switched to Permanent Resident status will stay in the US for the rest of their lives.
If you are ready to make your bones in the U.S., you have to become an American citizen.

Even boarders can get permanent residency if they meet the requirements for application.

It is up to the permanent resident to obtain permanent residence and live anywhere in the world.
But there are restrictions on permanent residency, so you need to know that.

Sometimes there are people who stay in the U.S. for a long period of time and do not remove their Japanese resident card.
They are not illegal residents, but people with visas or green cards （ who may be American citizens ？ ）.
In that case, you will not have to continue to pay National Insurance and Resident Tax. In that case, I think I have to keep paying National Insurance and Resident's Tax (???), but does anyone know what the benefits are to not report moving abroad ？

Please help me.

You can always return to your country for treatment. You can get a pension in Japan. You have no income in Japan, so you have minimal expenses. Prescriptions are also cheaper in Japan. If you are renting a room and living here, don't say "anytime", just go back home You can get government assistance even though you have no income in Japan.
Don't be persistent, but think about how you can stabilize your life.

He is not a dandy. He is different from his older brothers.
The "datte" in "datte ni ikimai nai" is "datte" in "datte-o".
The word "datte" means to be vain, to adorn one's appearance.
It means to act flamboyantly, especially to attract attention.

"Not living in date" means not living in such a superficial or lax manner.
It is also used of "not being Date or drunken".
This "drunkenness" also means the same thing, to be fond of things.

Zoom is for communication using video, LINE is for communication using text, stamps, etc. （ LINE can also be used for video conversations ）, I think. I think that each of them is suited for different purposes, so it is a little difficult to compare them in terms of advantages ・ and disadvantages.
By the way, LINE requires all users to verify their identity with a cell phone number, but Zoom does not.

Japanese Pension Sending Fee Refunds, US Bank

For June 15, $ I received a
50 refund ($ 25x2) in about a week from US Bank, but
for August 15, today （ September 16, ） there is still no refund.

When I called US Bank's Japanese service on Aug. 25,
a woman with solid Japanese explained it to me politely.

She told me that
they are working on an automated program
for refunds, but until then it will be a manual process
which will take time.

He also said
that we will be notified in writing if the refund is cancelled.

Has anyone already received a refund for August 15
？

Thank you in advance.

so I asked you here.

I just called US Bank's Japanese service

They made arrangements immediately.
I was told that
I could get the refund in a few days because of the procedure with the Japanese side.
