This included the mentioned CMD interventions and their assumed effects. In the health check model based on NG’s test, the nurse’s working time per patient was cut from 60 min to 10 min, meaning that in those 10 min, there’s not much time for anything else than probably checking the results of NG’s test and booking an appointment with a doctor or other intervention if risks are elevated. This only covered CMD and T2D diseases, so measuring other disease risks could, of course, bring additional benefits or drawbacks regarding NG’s test.
These are done in occupational health and also in the public sector, at least health checks for the unemployed. The model assumed that 15.2% of 50–54 year olds would attend an annual health check. The ‘no health check’ branch would have been an interesting addition to the study; currently, there is no information on the incremental benefit compared to it.
