Health screening is an important component of health promotion programs, and run trials have promoted general health screening targeting the prevention and early man agent of common chronic diseases. In Korea, a General Health Screening Program (GHSP) gan with workers in the 1950s and continuously expanded its target population, And currently includes the adult population. The main target diseases are cerebro - and cardiovascular diseases, including hypertensions, diabetes Mellitus, dyslipidemia, obesity, and related health behaviors. Other target conditions include other diseases (e.g., animia, live diseases, visual/auditor improvement), mental health (e.g., depression)), The National Health Information Database, including GHSP information, is now extensively used in clinical and public health research. The participation rate is currently 70% to 80%, but varies according to age, disability, And the socio-economic status. There is a need for a more systematic evaluation of the screening items, reducing dispersion gaps in segmentation, and linking GHSP to actual health promotion
