Those on Drake’s health plan can save $300 in 2016 by participating in the Wellness Incentive Program. You simply need to complete a biometrics screening and online wellness assessment this fall.
There are three options for completing your biometrics screening, including on-campus screenings by UnityPoint and making an appointment at a participating Hy-Vee store. The newest option is completing a physical with your physician.
If you have had a physical—with bloodwork—on or after June 1, the results can be submitted as your biometrics screening. To do so, your physician must complete and sign a form and send it to Wellmark. A few things to note:
- You must complete a screening/appointment with your physician between June 1 and Oct. 19.
- The signed form must be received directly from your doctor’s office by Oct. 29.
- Human Resources will not check to make sure Wellmark has received the signed form. It is up to you to ensure your physician’s office submits the appropriate paperwork by the Oct. 29 deadline. To determine whether your paperwork has been received, contact Wellmark on their 24/7 help line at 1-877-252-8412
Visit the Wellness Incentive Program site to download the form and for more information about the wellness incentive and your options. (You will need to sign in with your Banner ID and password.)
