Those on Drake’s health plan can save approximately $300 in 2019 by completing a wellness screening this year. If you are on Drake’s health plan and currently enrolled in the Wellness Premium Incentive Program, you must complete a wellness screening annually to retain your savings. There are three ways to complete your screening:
- At a participating Hy-Vee (available July 1—Sept. 15)
- On campus through UnityPoint Health (online registration opens Sept. 4 with screening dates in October)
- With your physician. Fill out a Physician Wellness Screening Results Form.
If you have a physical, with bloodwork, between Jan. 1 and Sept. 30, the results can be submitted as your wellness screening.
- Take a copy of the Physician Wellness Screening Results Form to your appointment.
- Your physician must sign the completed form and you or your physician must fax it to 1-855-827-6307. Results will be forwarded to Wellmark.
- The signed form must be received by Sept. 30, 2018.
- It is up to you to ensure your physician’s office submits the appropriate paperwork by the Sept. 30 deadline. To determine whether your paperwork has been received, contact Wellmark on their 24/7 helpline at 1-877-252-8412.
New this year: You will NOT be required to complete an online wellness assessment. You only need to complete the wellness screening to receive the premium incentive.
