TOKYO, Japan - July 3, 2023 - ORIX Life Insurance Corporation (“ORIX Life”) announced today that it will launch the “Appointment phone consultation service with registered dietitian” for customers who have suffered from myocardial infarction or brain infarction and have received benefits for hospitalization, surgery, etc. This service is the first of its kind in the industry.*1

The “Appointment phone consultation service with a registered dietitian” is part of the “Counseling Service for prevention of deterioration and recurrence”*2, which has been available as a supplementary service for ORIX Life’s products since 2018. A registered dietitian will provide free individualized and specific advice tailored to the customer’s situation, lifestyle, dietary preferences, etc., for customers who have suffered a myocardial infarction, brain infarction, or other similar condition and would like to receive a consultation. Of the customers who have used the “Counseling Service for prevention of deterioration and recurrence” to date, approximately 30%*3 of the consultations are related to “prevention of recurrence (diet).” By providing more specialized and specific advice for customer consultations, ORIX Life will assist customers in resolving their problems and provide them with even greater support for their health.

In addition, the “24-hour phone health consultation service” and “Nursing care and dementia support service” of Health and Medical Care Consultation Services*4 will now allow customers to consult with health counselors (public health nurses, nurses, etc.) not only by phone but also by chat messages. Furthermore, for the “Second opinion service,” customers will be able to apply for appointment arrangements online. Customers who may feel uncomfortable communicating their medical conditions over the phone, or who have questions that are difficult to discuss over the phone, will be able to use various services according to their circumstances.

ORIX Life will continue to provide customer-oriented services and strive to be an insurance company that customers can trust.
