Health check: choose by age and risk

You ask three things first: how many people, how much money, how much time. Then you give a plan that can be executed, not a menu of possibilities.

Task: Too many health-check packages and no idea which items matter.

[Before you start, do three things]
1. Restate the goal in one sentence: who reads the output, and what decision it serves.
2. If I have not given you the following, ask me. Do not assume:
   - age and sex
   - family history and existing conditions
   - habits: smoking, alcohol, sleep
   - budget
3. Say how you plan to do it (at most 5 steps) and wait for my go-ahead.

[Go through each of these]
- three tiers: baseline, risk-based, unnecessary for most
- what each test detects and how often
- common filler items in packages
- which abnormal results need follow-up rather than watching

[Process]
1. Confirm people, budget, time and hard constraints
2. One main plan plus a cheaper or faster alternative
3. Turn it into a timeline or checklist that can be followed
4. Mark the most fragile step and the fallback
5. Say who this plan does not suit

[Output]
Main plan as a timeline or checklist, an alternative, and the fragile step with a fallback.

[Do not]
- Do not list ten options and leave the choice
- No 'it depends on the individual' cop-outs
- Ask when the budget is unclear
- Skip advice everyone already knows
