Specimen document. This is an example of the summary an employer receives after an on-site day. All figures are illustrative and do not relate to any real employer or any real person.
Confidentiality: Individual results belong to the individual and are sent directly to them. This summary contains no personal data and no individual can be identified from it. Where a figure would be small enough to point to a particular person, it is reported as a band rather than a number. Optimum Health Screening Limited is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ZB158528).

GP follow-up
Advised to see their GP
Every person who attended received their own detailed report with each of their results explained, and where anything fell outside the reference range we told them so directly and advised them to take it to their GP. Nothing in this summary tells you who they were.

working days to reports
Appointments ran over two days, from 9:00 to 17:00 in 45-minute slots, using the meeting room on the first floor. Each person had venous bloods taken, a 12-lead ECG, blood pressure and resting heart rate, body composition analysis, and a one-to-one review of their measurements and lifestyle. Blood results followed in an individual report, sent by secure link three working days later.
Age profile: the group ranged from late twenties to late fifties, with most people in their thirties and forties. Age and sex breakdowns are given as bands rather than counts for groups of this size.

What we found
Overall
7 in range
2
3 to GP
Seven people had no results outside the reference ranges. Two had borderline findings we suggested they monitor. Three were advised to take a result to their GP. Nothing found on the day required urgent attention.
By area
Blood pressure Most common finding
The area where most of the group had something to act on. Readings above the recommended range were the single most common finding of the day, and in each case we advised the person to have it rechecked by their GP. Raised blood pressure has no symptoms, which is why it tends to surface at screening rather than anywhere else.
Cholesterol and lipids Some borderline
A small number of people had a total cholesterol or LDL result above the recommended level, mostly in the borderline band rather than markedly raised. Discussed with each person alongside diet, activity and family history.
Blood sugar (HbA1c) Some borderline
A small number fell into the range that suggests raised risk of type 2 diabetes. This is the finding most responsive to changes in diet and activity, and each person was given specific guidance alongside their 10-year risk score.
Body composition Mixed
Around half the group had a BMI or waist-to-height ratio above the healthy range. Body fat percentage and muscle mass were discussed individually — BMI alone is a poor guide for anyone who trains regularly, which is part of why we measure composition rather than weight.
Liver, kidney and iron Largely in range
Almost everyone was within range across liver enzymes, kidney function and iron markers. Isolated results outside range were discussed individually and, where appropriate, we suggested a repeat test through their GP.
Resting ECG All normal
Every trace recorded on the day was reported as normal. Where a trace shows something worth looking at, we advise the person to take it to their GP.
Why some figures are given as bands. In a group of twelve, a single person is more than eight per cent of the total. Reporting exact counts in every category would make it possible to work out who a result belongs to, particularly for anyone with a distinctive age or role. For groups of twenty-five or more we include numeric breakdowns by area and by age band, because at that size no individual can be picked out.

Themes from the conversations
Each appointment includes a one-to-one review, and the same subjects came up repeatedly. These are impressions from twelve conversations rather than measured data, and are offered on that basis.
Sleep
The subject raised most often, and usually unprompted. Several people described sleeping less than six hours on weeknights.
Activity
A clear split between people exercising regularly and people doing almost nothing structured, with few in between. Desk-based days and commuting were the reasons given.
Alcohol
Most reported drinking within the recommended 14 units a week. A few were above it and knew they were.
Smoking and vaping
Very few smokers. Vaping came up more often, generally among people who had stopped smoking.
Last contact with a GP
A number of people had not had blood pressure or bloods checked in more than five years. This is the ordinary picture in working-age adults and is the main reason findings surface at screening.

Suggestions
1
Make it annual
A single check tells someone where they stand today. A second one a year later tells them which direction they are going in, which is the more useful information. HMRC treats one health screening per employee per year as exempt, with no P11D entry.
2
Give people time to follow up
Screening only helps if people act on it. Where someone has been advised to see their GP, an hour of paid time to do so removes the most common reason they do not.
3
Blood pressure is worth a standing offer
It was the most common finding here and it usually is. A monitor kept in the office, or signposting to the free pharmacy check, costs almost nothing and catches the thing most likely to be missed.
4
Open it to everyone next time
Where a first visit is offered to part of the workforce, take-up on a second is usually higher once people have heard what the appointment involves. It also means the summary can carry numeric detail rather than bands.
Arranging another day
On-site days are booked about four weeks ahead. We need a private room with a table, two chairs and a power socket — everything else comes with us. Ten people a day on the Essential check, or seven with the ECG; larger groups run over consecutive days. Employees who would rather attend in person are welcome at our clinics in Kingston upon Thames or Crawley instead.
