As a reminder, employees on Drake’s health plan who complete an annual physical with a Primary Care Provider (PCP) will receive a reduction in their health insurance premiums.

To receive the wellness health insurance premium discount in 2022, employees on Drake’s health plan need to complete a physical with a Primary Care Provider (PCP) between Dec. 1, 2020, and Nov. 30, 2021, and submit a Physician Exam Completion Form by Dec. 2, 2021.  This is the only option to receive the discount in 2022.

Besides receiving a premium discount, an annual physical is a great way to receive important health information through age and gender specific examinations, schedule recommended preventative screenings, and create a doctor-patient relationship.

If you have not scheduled your annual physical yet with your primary care provider, you are encouraged to do so as soon as possible.
