Hi Alan Burton,
Thank you for your comment! Judging from the information you provided (context, relationship and age gap between you and the lady), "bạn có khỏe không?" is generally polite. Some people would think a man calling a woman by "em" if he doesn't really know her a bit inappropriate. In this situation, "cô" would be the best choice to address the lady as "cô" is used to address a female which is not close to you- relationship wise. "Cô" in this context means "you" in a polite and distant way.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any further questions!
Sincerely,
Khanh

I tried to ask a lady who works where I live, "bạn có khỏe không?" My pronunciation was obviously terrible because she looked puzzled but eventually got it and corrected me. She is younger than I am (by about 15 years), so I apologised for using "bạn". I asked if I should have said "em khỏe...?" and a much younger women who was listening, chipped in and said yes, but it would be polite if I used the term "cô" - when i looked it up, ít was lísted as "she" and "madam" but also as "aunt" - can you advise me on this, please?
