A reminder that those employees with university health insurance who take the Health Risk Assessment (HRA) are entitled to enhanced wellness benefits.
Employees have until Dec. 4 to take the HRA.
|
- A $300 Wellness and Preventative Services benefit — a $50 increase over the standard benefit;
- A $600 Well-Child Care Benefit — a $100 increase over the standard benefit;
- A free colonoscopy through a Blue Cross Blue Shield preferred provider every 10 years once they reach the age of 50; and
- No co-pay for generic drugs accessed through mail service.
The HRA is voluntary and will be taken at Wellstream Online or in Firefly (See log on instructions on the right). The assessment will take about 15 minutes and needs to be completed in one sitting.
Aside from the enhanced benefits, all who take the HRA will get personalized health summaries.
The HRA will help employees assess and monitor their own health care status and UNMC will use anonymous, aggregate data from the assessments to develop plans and programs to address health care trends found among the faculty and staff.
All active (benefits eligible) employees, retirees, ancillary and COBRA insureds can take the HRA.
