2018 Wellness Program: Small Steps Make a Big Difference
The 2018 well-being program (formerly Healthy Spirit) is dedicated to helping you take small steps in your wellness journey.
Your health is about more than routine trips to your doctor – it’s about the small everyday choices you make. Those choices can add up and make a big difference on your overall health.
The goal of the 2018 well-being program is to focus more on a holistic and meaningful wellness experience by offering programs and support that meet your physical, emotional, social, financial and spiritual needs.

Changes for 2018
Starting January 2018, we’ve streamlined how incentives are earned and paid out.
- One change is that the premium reduction has been discontinued. Personal health assessment and biometric screenings are no longer required to earn rewards. Both of these components are optional if you choose to include them in your personal wellness journey.
- Another change for 2018 is the removal of biometric outcomes as part of the reward program. Instead, you can earn rewards by participating in any of the optional programs and challenges, starting January 8 through September 28.
- Additionally, the amount of wellness dollars you can earn has been increased. You and your spouse can earn up to $450 per person (up to $900 if your spouse also participates).
- Funds earned can be deposited into your Health Incentive Account (or Health Savings Account if you’re participating in a High-Deductible Health Plan) or into a gift card(s). If you participate in the gift card program, however, your reward will be considered taxable income.
