e asked:
My employer is asking for a medical exam. I thought by law they had to provide one for me but I guess since I’m foreign their not worried about following laws and I don’t think theres much I can do besides quit or get a medical check up. Even if I quit, I want to get my blood checked etc.

Can I go to a small local clinic or do I have to go to a big hospital?
How much will this cost if I have national insurance?
They will check blood sugar levels right?

It depends on the details. Standard package of mecical exam including blood sugar level can’t be used National Insurance, you would have to go bigger hospital with appointment and pay Yen8000 around 100pct if you are not employed. If you have been employed, annual body check regulated by official law is charged to the company 100pct so that you don’t need to pay anything. bluemoonmemory
