Summary

This study tests whether a combination of a 90-minute home visit by trained student interns and a month of daily AI-generated health messages can encourage older adults in Hong Kong to join District Health Centres. 180 adults aged 65 and older who are not yet members will be randomly assigned to receive the intervention or usual care. The main goal is to see if more people sign up within 3 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Home-based and AI-generated digital intervention
What this could lead to: If successful, this approach could provide a low-cost way to connect more older adults with preventive health services.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage feasibility study. The intervention may not significantly boost membership, and results may not apply outside Hong Kong.
