Japanese Health Service - 11-11-2007, 12:57 PM

Any information on the japanese health service?
Here are some questions i'd like answered if possible.

1- Is taking "health insurance" compulsory in japan?
2- If so, which company would you recommend for a "student" that spends on average more than "$1000 per year" on medication (this is ofcourse before getting refunds)
3- Do you need to register with a "General Practitioner" (normal doctor to visit for non-lethal illness)
4- In tokyo, how much does it cost per visit to a GP?


I have other questions, but they will be asked if someone can help me out with these for now... Thanks
