The city subsidizes part of the cost of checkups you paid for yourself at midwife clinics or medical institutions outside Tokyo, etc. where the checkup vouchers cannot be used. Covered checkups are prenatal checkups, newborn hearing screening (only the first test taken by the day the baby reaches 50 days), postpartum checkups, and 1-month infant checkups. Of these, postpartum checkups and 1-month infant checkups were newly added for people who gave birth on or after April 1, 2026. You can apply if, for example, you were registered as a resident of Nerima City on the day of the checkup, you still have the unused checkup voucher, and no more than 1 year has passed since the birth date. The subsidy limit is the public funding amount per checkup voucher. For checkups on or after April 1, 2026: prenatal checkup 1st ¥11,670, 2nd-14th ¥5,460, ultrasound ¥5,300, cervical cancer test ¥3,400, newborn hearing screening ¥3,000, postpartum checkup ¥5,000 (up to 2 times), and 1-month infant checkup ¥6,000. Only the costs of test items approved for public funding are covered. Postpartum checkups within 2 months after birth, and 1-month infant checkups taken after the baby is more than 27 days old and before 6 weeks, are covered. If you had postpartum or 1-month infant checkups by September 30, 2026, you can apply even without an unused checkup voucher.
