1. Introduction
This document includes the functional specifications for General Connect health platform.

2. Overall Site Architecture

The platform aims to provide healthcare content for registered users. Through a series of assessments,
users will be able to obtain certain advice on their health status. This platform will also allow
communications between health experts and general users educating users on health related
information.

The platform will first be built on the Wordpress platform with a selected theme. Customisation and
integration of plugins will be added on to achieve full functions of the platform.

There are a total of 3 user roles in this platform. They are:

1. System Administrator
1. Have full access to content management system
2. Manage and verify ‘Expert’ users
3. Manage ‘Member’ users
4. Manage assessment results of all users
 2. ‘Expert’ user
a. Register and Login to platform
b. Access assessments
c. Track past assessments results
d. Access and comment on articles content
e. Create and edit user profile
f. Chat with other users

3. ‘Member’ user
a. Register and Login to platform
b. Access assessments
c. Track past assessments results
d. Access and comment on articles content
e. Create and edit user profile
f. Chat with other users

3. Assessment Function
Both ‘Expert’ and ‘Member’ users will be able to access this function. Admin will be able to review
and export all user’s score data in csv / excel format. All calculations logic will be provided by
Generation Connect.

There will be a total of 9 assessments available on this platform: 

 Assessments questions will be created using in form format.
 Additional logics will be hard coded into each assessment to generate a score for each user.
 Assessment response and scores of each user will be saved to the database
 Users will be able to review and track their past scores for assessment
 Across assessments, there will be a logic to calculate an average assessment score.
 Scores will determine the type of articles that will be suggested to users upon completion of
assessment
 Assessments that are completed by users will have a ‘Completion’ status when users browse
the assessment listing page in future sessions

A.Individual Assessment calculations

An example of calculation logic is as follows:

Risk Score = 0.081 × Age(years) + 0.0117 × Waist circumference (cm) + 0.0115 × Body height (cm)
+ 0.1292 × Daily alcohol (yes=1, no=0) + 0.094 × Physically active (yes=1, no=0) − 0.0773 ×
Vegetable (per 100g/day) − 0.0166 × Dairy (per 80g/day) + 0.08 × Processed meat (per 50g/day) +
0.02 × Sugar and confectionary (per 50g/day)
Risk_10_years = 1 - 0.9943^exp(Risk_Score - 6.89)

Values that are selected by users will be plugged into the formula and eventually generate a ‘score’
for individual assessments.
 B. Across Assessments
Scores from individual assessments will be added/multiplied to derive a final average score:

Total Physical Activity MET-minutes/week = [(P2 * P3 * 8) + (P5 *P7 * 4) + (P1 * P9 * 4) + (P14 *

P15* 4)]
