The city covers, up to ¥6,000 per time, the cost of the health checkup at around 1 month old that checks the baby's growth, nutrition, and whether there is any illness. Checkups on or after April 1, 2026 are covered, taken from 28 to 41 days after birth (counting the birth date as day 0).

From October 1, 2026, if you submit the checkup voucher to a contracted medical institution in Tokyo, you receive the subsidy on the spot. The voucher is given when you submit a pregnancy notification on or after April 1, 2026 (for people with a due date on or after September 1, 2026). If you had the checkup somewhere other than a contracted medical institution, for example in your hometown, or paid out of pocket from April 1 to September 30, 2026, you are reimbursed when you apply later.
