Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jeong Wono) announced that it will implement a follow-up management service that provides expert consultations and metabolic syndrome screenings to systematically manage the health of residents who do not know how to utilize their national health screening results.

The health screening follow-up management service is a health management service provided by the Seongdong-gu Public Health Center that assesses metabolic syndrome risk factors based on residents' national health screening results and offers customized consultations by experts in various fields such as doctors, nurses, exercise specialists, and nutritionists. This service is available at the Resident Health Management Center within the Seongdong-gu Public Health Center.

The Seongdong-gu Public Health Center guides residents who consent to the use of their screening results during the national health screening to receive the follow-up management service in cooperation with the National Health Insurance Service. It provides metabolic syndrome screenings and expert consultations to help residents develop the ability to manage their own health and maintain proper health habits.

In particular, if the national health screening results for obesity, hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia fall outside the normal range, it is considered that the individual has metabolic syndrome risk factors, and they are actively guided to receive follow-up management services.

Metabolic syndrome refers to a condition where a person has three or more risk factors of lifestyle diseases such as visceral fat-type abdominal obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, which increases the incidence rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

If a person who has undergone the national health screening has been found to have risk factors for chronic diseases, they can visit the center with their health screening results to receive registration management. However, if they have a public certificate on their smartphone, they can check their screening results through the National Health Insurance Service app and receive registration management without the results document.

Jeong Wono, Mayor of Seongdong-gu, said, “I hope that through the health screening follow-up management service, residents can consistently manage their health and protect it.” He added, “We will continue to promote quality projects that provide useful health information to residents and enhance individual health management capabilities.”
