Don’t forget your biometrics screening!

If you’re on Drake’s health plan, you can save $300 off your health insurance premium in 2016 by participating in the Drake Wellness Incentive. In order to qualify, you must complete a biometrics screening and online wellness assessment. Only four dates for on-campus screenings remain!

On-campus biometrics screenings will take place between 6:30 and 10:30 a.m. in the Bell Center on the following dates: Nov. 3, 4, 10, and 13.

To schedule your screening, click here, and use the username DRAKEU and password SCREEN2015 to log in. Once you sign up, please make a note of your screening date and time, as you will not receive a reminder email.

If you need to cancel your on-campus screening, email jennifer.umphfleet@unitypoint.org with your name and date and time of cancelled appointment. You will need to re-register online for a new appointment. Changes can be made up to 48 hours prior to the screen time.

Signed up but don’t remember your date/time? Look at your received or deleted emails for an email confirmation sent to you by unitypointhealth.desmoines@gmail.com with the subject: Health Screen Confirmation.

You can also complete your biometrics screening at a participating Hy-Vee by Nov. 13. Full details and a list of participating Hy-Vee stores can be found here. Hy-Vee will submit your screening results to Wellmark, which will automatically update your online assessment.

If you’ve already completed your biometrics screening, don’t forget to take the online wellness assessment via myWellmark by Dec. 4.
