The city pays for checkups that confirm the mother's health after birth and the growth of the 1-month-old baby. Checkups on or after October 1, 2026 are covered; checkups on or before September 30 are not.

Postpartum checkups are in principle for mothers within 2 months after birth, and the 1-month infant checkup is for babies examined from 28 to 41 days old (counting the birth date as day 0), once per baby, up to ¥6,000. From April 1, 2026, the vouchers are in the "Mother and Child Health Bag" given at the pregnancy notification, and eligible people who submitted the notification between January 1 and March 31, 2026 were sent them by mail during August 2026.
