The Osan City Public Health Center in Gyeonggi-do announced on the 3rd that the 'Mobile Healthcare Project,' conducted over six months from last May to last month, proved health improvement effects in 6 out of 10 participants.

The 'Mobile Healthcare Project' targets adults aged 19 to 64 who have health risk factors but are not currently prescribed medication. Participants receive customized health management from public health experts through a mobile application and smartwatch, regardless of time and place.

The health center referred 40% of the project participants to health managers at local businesses to select candidates, aiming to improve the health management capabilities of workers who find it difficult to visit the health center.

As a result of the final examination conducted on citizens who participated in the project, the health center explained that 58% showed improvements in health behaviors such as walking practice rates and eating habits. Additionally, 53.1% experienced a reduction in health risk factors such as blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol. The participant satisfaction survey also showed a high satisfaction score of 4.25 out of 5.

Go Donghun, director of the Osan City Public Health Center, said, "Through the Mobile Healthcare Project, citizens have been able to more easily form healthy lifestyle habits," adding, "We plan to expand projects that help create healthy lifestyle habits in daily life."
