Health Ahead Comparative Effectiveness Study for Preventive Health Screenings
This study, called the Health Ahead Comparative Effectiveness Study, is looking at different ways to improve preventive health screenings, especially for people in rural or underserved areas who might not have easy access to them. It's testing new approaches one at a time against current methods. For example, the first part of the study compares a static (unchanging) health report to an interactive one. The goal is to find the best ways to make health screenings more accessible and effective, eventually leading to a fully automated system that can be used anywhere. You can join if you are 18 or older and are willing to provide consent and participate in long-term follow-up. The study aims to see if these new approaches are at least as good as current practices in getting people involved in their health.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study designed as a standing sequential comparative-effectiveness platform, meaning it tests changes one at a time. It plans to enroll a very large number of participants, up to 1,000,000.
- What's involved
- You would need to provide written informed consent and be willing to participate in longitudinal follow-up. The study measures health engagement at the start, at 6-12 months, and then periodically until death, up to 100 years.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed from enrollment until death, up to 100 years, with measurements taken at baseline, 6-12 months, and periodically thereafter.

Inclusion
What this trial measures
- Health Activation and Engagement (Non-Inferiority)Baseline, 6-12-month follow-up, then periodically from enrollment until death, up to 100 years.
Change from baseline in health activation score, measured by a validated open-source instrument, compared between the static report arm (Arm A) and the interactive report arm (Arm B). Non-inferiority of the interactive arm is assessed with a one-sided non-inferiority test against a non-inferiority margin pre-specified in the comparison's Statistical Analysis Plan and locked before any analysis of comparison data.
