Question
Does Anhui currently offer free newborn disease screening?
Answer
Generally, maternity departments in hospitals are required to conduct newborn disease screening for babies born in their hospital, such as congenital hypothyroidism and phenylketonuria. You can consult the maternity department of the hospital where you gave birth to see if newborn disease screening has been conducted. You can also go to the hospital for genetic counseling to screen for congenital diseases. The doctor asks: Where were you born? Do you have a family history of congenital diseases?
