The battery health feature is exclusive to iOS for iPhone, inclusion of this feature being relatively recent.


iOS/iPadOS for iPad has never had the Battery Health feature - most likely because iPad batteries are both considerably larger and have a much longer service life. 


An iPad battery is rated to maintain at least 80% of its initial capacity after 1000 full charge/discharge cycles - whereas an iPhone is rated to have 80% of initial capacity after 500 full cycles.


There are software packages available that can access battery cycle count. Popular choices for Mac are Coconut Battery and iMazing - whereas iMazing is available for PC.

There are many descriptions of methods to use iPad Analytics and/or Shortcuts to estimate an iPad's battery health - these being unsupported methods. Where they work at all, they are at best unreliable - often requiring the associated shortcut scripts to be regularly modified or updated; the analytics data, upon with these unsupported methods rely, regularly change format as iPadOS is updated.
