Health is the cornerstone of all. People often conduct health inspections due to work or their own needs, and have not made good use of the free health inspections provided by the government. The Ministry of Welfare Health Administration provides adult health inspection services for people aged 40 to 64 every 3 years, indigenous people over 55 and people over 65 years old, once a year. However, it is shown that only two percent of men aged 40 to 44 use free adult health inspection services, becoming the most neglected group.

The National Health Administration announced the 106-year adult prevention and health care policy. A total of 1.88 million people in the country received services, with the highest utilization rate among the 60-64-year-olds, with a utilization rate of 38.5%, of which 43% of women's utilization rate is greater than 32% of men.

Statistics also found that the lowest utilization rate is the age of 40 to 44, with only 23.7%. On average, less than one out of four people have had adult health examinations, of which 26% of women have used female utilization rate and only 20% of men. Chen Miaoxin, director of the Chronic Disease Prevention and Treatment Group of the National Health Administration, said that adult health examinations provide people with opportunities to prevent them through inspections before the disease occurs. Among the ethnic groups with low adult health examination usage rates, men aged 40 to 44 have the lowest in the past three years, 20.6% in 2010, less than two% in 2010, only 19.8%, and 20.5% in 2010.

Chen Miaoxin said that men in their forties are not confused, and men in their 40s to 44 are at the peak of their careers. They are also ignoring their own physical health.

Director of the National Health Administration Wang Yingwei called out that after the age of 40, the public should receive adult health inspection services every three years. The later they discover potential disease risk factors, the more limited the prevention effect, the more the treatment cost will be relatively higher.

Chen Miaoxin said that many people do not know that the government provides adult health inspection services. Although there are not many adult health inspection projects, they are basic inspections, including blood tests to check blood sugar, blood lipids, kidney and liver function, urine protein checks, filling out health behavior questions, answering questions without smoking, drinking, chewing betel and sports habits, and directly consulting with doctors, simultaneous blood pressure, waist measurement and BMI calculation, and finding problems early.

Currently, more than 6,000 medical hospitals in the country provide free adult health inspection services, and people over 40 can make good use of it.
