Why do British people often greet with "You okay?"?

My sister is a member of some website called Tagged or something like that where she gets people from around the world messaging her, and the people from the UK often write her, "Hey, you ok?"

In America, asking someone if they're okay implies that you think something is physically or emotionally wrong with them. What does it mean to a Brit?
