Japan's internal affairs ministry has called on the education, health, and Children and Families Agency ministries to support health checkups for students who refuse to attend school. A survey found that many truant students, especially in junior high, missed out on crucial examinations, leading to delayed diagnoses of conditions like scoliosis and kidney disease. Some municipalities offer alternative checkup schedules and home visits to accommodate these students.
