Supplementary Provisions, Article 118
第百十八条
The prefectural governor may, for the time being, upon application by the establisher of the hospital or clinic, designate as a collaborative specified regional medical care provision institution a hospital or clinic (limited to one situated in the area of the relevant prefecture) whose physicians' working hours unavoidably become long as a result of the staffing of physicians at another hospital or clinic (limited to staffing found necessary to ensure the medical care delivery system), pursuant to an Order of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.
The provisions of Article 113, paragraphs (2) through (7), Article 114 and Article 115 of the Supplementary Provisions apply mutatis mutandis to the designation of a collaborative specified regional medical care provision institution under the preceding paragraph, the provisions of Article 116 of the Supplementary Provisions apply mutatis mutandis to a change in the operations of the physicians staffed under that paragraph by a collaborative specified regional medical care provision institution, and the provisions of the preceding Article apply mutatis mutandis to the rescission of the designation of a collaborative specified regional medical care provision institution under that paragraph. In this case, the term "physicians engaged in the operations prescribed in that paragraph" in Article 113, paragraph (2) is deemed to be replaced with "physicians staffed at another hospital or clinic (limited to those pertaining to the staffing prescribed in Article 118, paragraph (1))", the term "this Article" in paragraph (7) of that Article is deemed to be replaced with "Article 118", the term "the operations prescribed in Article 113, paragraph (1) no longer exist" in item (i) of paragraph (1) of the preceding Article is deemed to be replaced with "the staffing of physicians prescribed in paragraph (1) of the following Article is no longer carried out", and the term "each item of Article 113, paragraph (3)" in item (ii) of that paragraph is deemed to be replaced with "each item of Article 113, paragraph (3) as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to paragraph (2) of the following Article".
第百十三条第二項から第七項まで、第百十四条及び第百十五条の規定は前項の規定による連携型特定地域医療提供機関の指定について、第百十六条の規定は連携型特定地域医療提供機関の同項に規定する派遣をされる医師の業務の変更について、前条の規定は同項の規定による連携型特定地域医療提供機関の指定の取消しについて、それぞれ準用する。この場合において、第百十三条第二項中「同項に規定する業務に従事する医師」とあるのは「他の病院又は診療所に派遣される医師（第百十八条第一項に規定する派遣に係るものに限る。）」と、同条第七項中「この条」とあるのは「第百十八条」と、前条第一項第一号中「第百十三条第一項に規定する業務がなくなつた」とあるのは「次条第一項に規定する医師の派遣が行われなくなつた」と、同項第二号中「第百十三条第三項各号」とあるのは「次条第二項において準用する第百十三条第三項各号」と読み替えるものとする。
