This study proposes a method for calculating the appropriate medical treatment price level for foreign visitors (FVs) in Japan. Hospital management costs and foreign prices were analyzed from a market principles perspective to determine the medical treatment price. The study involved two stages: a preliminary survey and an extended survey, supplemented by an international survey. Relatively frequent diseases were selected, and the costs incurred by hospitals for the treatment of FVs were analyzed though data from three hospitals, covering 24 outpatients and 4 inpatients. Payments made by three insurance companies for overseas medical institution services for Japanese tourists with pharyngitis were analyzed. This study shows that the appropriate medical treatment prices for FVs, considering profits, were 1.22–4.26 times higher compared with prices under Japan’s public health insurance plans. Furthermore, these prices were 1.31–4.26 times higher for outpatients with pharyngitis and external injury and 1.22–3.66 times higher for inpatients with appendicitis and femoral fractures. The price of pharyngitis treatment in 12 countries was USD 20.32–158.75 per patient for Japanese tourists, whereas FVs paid 60.24 dollars (1.13 times higher than Japan’s public healthcare price) in Japan. This study shows it was appropriate to set the ideal price level for FVs higher than that for Japanese patients.

This study intended to determine the forms of Japanese language interference and the factors that caused them during the service of the Japanese tourists in several hotels in Badung Regency. The methods used in this study were the referral method, survey method and proficient method. The results of the study indicated that there were several forms of hotel and restaurant staff interference in serving Japanese tourists in several hotels in Badung Regency including: (a) pronunciation of Japanese sound units which were influenced by the dialect of the mother tongue of hotel staff, (b) morphological and syntactic, since in Japanese there are kenjougo, songkeigo (language level), and (c) vocabulary (lexical interference), in various forms, occurring in basic words, groups of words and phrases. This, if left directly or indirectly will affect the satisfaction of Japanese tourists, which in turn will lead to complaints to the hotel concerned and the world of Bali tourism in general.
