There are screening tests for more than 20 other metabolic disorders. But because the tests are very costly, and the disorders very rare and currently untreatable, the tests are not really worth the trouble. The DOH therefore has not included these tests in the subsidized screening program. If private individuals insist on them, they can pay for them out of their own pocket.
除此之外，還有二十幾種代謝疾病可以檢測出來，但礙於經費龐大、發生率甚低，及可能尚無治療方法等因素，篩檢的價值不高，衛生署未列入補助篩檢的項目，民眾若有需求可以自費篩檢。
