Doubtful. A healthy child may not need yearly check-ups, but if there is a medical issue that is not being treated, that could be neglect. Also, public schools often provide this service when parents don't. You can always call your county Children and Youth to make a report if you're concerned that a child (or yourself) is not being properly cared for.
