For those who will be undergoing the Association Health Insurance General Health Checkup (lifestyle-related disease prevention checkup)
As abdominal palpation is no longer a required item in the general health checkup for the Japan Health Insurance Association (prevention of lifestyle-related diseases), it is now left to the discretion of the doctor.
2025年4月~腹部触診の代替で実施しておりました腹部超音波検査が健診項目から除外となります。
If you would like to have an abdominal ultrasound examination, you can apply for it as an optional examination (examination fee: 5,500 yen (tax included)).
