The Tokai-Hokuriku Regional Bureau of Health and Welfare is a government office in Nagoya that supervises medical facilities and pharmacies. It ensures compliance with national health standards across several prefectures in central Japan.

The bureau was established after World War II as part of Japan's healthcare administration reform following the war. It was created to implement the country's national medical insurance and public health system.

The bureau represents Japan's approach to maintaining healthcare quality through careful institutional oversight. This reflects how the country handles medical accountability at a regional level.

Medical institutions must apply for registration by mail and should expect processing to take several weeks. Visitors should note this is a specialized government office with limited public access.

The office maintains an extensive registry of every licensed doctor and medical facility across the Tokai and Hokuriku regions. This centralized database allows for coordinated oversight of healthcare quality and availability.
