Based on the data indicators of the total population and the number of people undergoing health examination from the China Statistical Yearbook，We calculated the overall national health examination rate during 2011-2020 and the health examination rate of seven regions and provinces and cities in China during 2016-2020，analyzed the development status，trends and existing problems of the health examination industry，and put forward countermeasures and suggestions accordingly. The health examination rate in China rose steadily from 2011 to 2020，covering 30% of the total population. The uneven economic development and the unequal scale of medical and health expenditure in seven regions lead to the great difference of health examination rates in different regions. At the same time，the support policies of the municipal government for the physical examination are different，and the service ability of the physical examination （management） institutions is different，which causes the great change of the health examination rate in provinces and cities. The level of residents’health literacy and the COVID-19 epidemic are also influencing factors of the health examination rate. It is urgent to propose targeted support policies for the relatively backward areas，improve the health literacy level of residents，and provide people with comprehensive and full-cycle health management services.
