Where the insured is hospitalized for diagnosis and/or treatment as a party covered by social insurance, this company will make reimbursement for any surgical expenses incurred during the hospitalization period that are required by social insurance to be borne by the covered party and are not within the scope of social insurance benefit coverage, subject to a cap calculated by multiplying the maximum policy proceeds per surgical operation specified in this contract by the applicable percentage specified in the Table for Surgical Operation Names and Expenses. Where the insured has two or more surgical operations during a single hospitalization period, the policy proceeds for each surgical operation shall be calculated separately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in a case where surgical operations are performed on two or more organs in a single surgical position during a single surgical operation, the insurance benefits will be calculated based on the highest relevant percentage specified in the Table for Surgical Operation Names and Expenses.
If the insured undergoes a surgical operation that is not listed in the attached Table for Surgical Operation Names and Expenses, this company will negotiate with the insured to determine a benefit amount based on the benefit ratio for a surgical operation of comparable seriousness listed therein..
