I do full checkups (including nevus mapping, since I'm very pale) every year , all covered by my employee's insurance of course.
I think it is a great practice for peace of mind, because, since I do this checks frequently, everything it catches will eventually be nothing or something at the very beginning, so low risk.
Also, with more people doing that, eventually the cost of doing it will lower, and the cost of care (for diseases) will also lower because people will have a focus on preventive treatment. So I see only upsides here
I feel the author here has a "what the eyes don't see, the hear doesn't feel" about it, claiming this kind of control will bring anxiety as people will think every little thing they see is a deadly disease. Maybe at the beginning yes, but in the long term my experience is the opposite...
