What is considered a healthy HOMA-IR score?

Optimal insulin sensitivity is = 3.0.

Why is measuring fasting insulin and HOMA-IR crucial before HbA1c rises?

The pancreas overproduces insulin for years (hyperinsulinemia) to maintain normal blood sugar before overt diabetes develops; HOMA-IR catches this early compensatory phase.
