All the kokugos say that 健診 is an abbreviation. None of the kokugos merge. I'll split out 健診.

GG5: けんしん2【健診・検診】 (a) medical examination; health screening. ~する examine; check up 《on sb's health》.
中辞典:
けんしん 【検診】 (a) medical examination
けんしん 【健診】 a (general) health examination [checkup]
Reverso divides them quite solidly on screening/checkup.
  Comments:
No references were provided to support the previous submission.
GG5 has a combined entry, but the examples tend to associate 検診 with screening. Other JEs split, but have overlapping glosses.
We could split the entries, but I think just having two senses with notes probably is better. I don't see a case for 健診 being an abbreviation.

  Comments:
These are actually two different words (one is an abbreviation, and another is not). Maybe it would make more sense to split them into separate entries.
