Wellness Score
The Wellness Score provides insights into an individual’s well-being and potential health risks, to help improve health outcomes. It assist with behaviour change by motivating and focusing an individual on areas that will have most positive impact on health outcomes.
A 70% median health score is added to or subtracted from based-on published and peer-reviewed Hazard Ratios (HR) relating to the biometric and health values aggregated within the Wellness Plus application. The calculation is adapted to different population groups with varying risk factors that should be taken into account and differing hazard ratios relating to their levels of risk. The overall contribution of each parameter is weighted depending on the hazard ratio for the individual parameters.
The wellness score provides an insight into your wellbeing and potential health risks highlighting any areas you need to work on to improve. Each health parameter we capture is compared to a reference range. Where you sit on this reference range indicates a healthy or unhealthy contribution to your wellness score. The level of this contribution is based on published scientific research that has assessed longitudinal risk to your health based on each parameter.
