Abstract
With the development of medical technology and improvements in medicine, many patients with childhood-onset chronic diseases transition into adulthood. As our society is facing new problems, how we provide necessary and seamless medical care for adult patients with childhood-onset chronic diseases, and how we promote their health care transition become important. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan has demonstrated basic policies on health care transition and is building support systems for patients with childhood-onset chronic diseases.
