Additional Wellness Activities
Complete Additional Wellness Activities between January 1 – December 31 and earn up to $800 in your MRA. Your covered spouse/domestic partner can complete Additional Wellness Activities during the same time period, and you will receive up to an additional $300 in your MRA.
The Medical Plan covers eligible in-network preventive care at 100% with no deductible, coinsurance, or copayments. Out-of-network preventive care is also covered but generally at a higher cost. You and/or your covered spouse/domestic partner can earn Additional Wellness Rewards for completing any of the following age and gender appropriate preventive care services:
Body mass index (BMI) is one of the numbers that is measured in the Wellness Screening. BMI can be an indicator of overall health. Achieve a BMI under 25 or a weight loss of at least 5% since your last screening and earn $200 in Wellness Rewards.
* If it is unreasonably difficult because of a medical condition for you and/or your covered spouse/domestic partner to achieve the standards for the reward under this program, contact your health care company to work with you (and, if you wish, with your doctor) on an alternative.
A Healthy blood pressure is a reading of 120/80 or less.
If your blood pressure is 120/80 or less, you earn $200 in Wellness Rewards.
If your blood pressure is greater than 120/80 but less than 160/100, you can earn $200 in Wellness Rewards in one of two ways:
- You can make an appointment at an onsite JPMC Health & Wellness Center for in-person health coaching regarding your risks for high blood pressure. After completion of your coaching session, the JPMC nurse will notify your health care company that the coaching took place and the health care company will authorize Wellness Rewards for Blood Pressure.
- You can call your health care company (Aetna/Cigna) and complete a Telephonic Health Coaching that will be focused on your blood pressure or a related topic, such as Heart Health. Your health care company will authorize your Wellness Rewards. Note: The incentive for completing this Blood Pressure activity will be recorded under Telephonic 'Health Coaching', not Blood Pressure
If your blood pressure is 160/100 or greater, you can still earn $200 in Wellness Rewards by calling your health care company (Aetna/Cigna) to obtain the "Wellness Screening Outcomes Exemption Form" and taking it to your personal health care provider. Your health care provider can determine if medication adjustment or information regarding your blood pressure risks is appropriate for you. They can then complete the form and fax it to Cigna as evidence that you are currently under medical care for your blood pressure. Your health care company will then award Wellness Rewards for Blood Pressure.
After you complete a biometric Wellness Screening and/or an Online Wellness Assessment you can call your health care company to discuss the results and to learn what tools and resources are available to improve your results.
Aetna and Cigna offer access to health coaches who can answer questions about your Wellness Screening and/or Wellness Assessment, as well as help you set and achieve your health goals, assess treatment options, navigate the Wellness Program, and remind you about prescription refills and preventive tests. You have your choice of receiving telephonic or online support.
If your health care company (Aetna or Cigna) feels you could benefit by working with a health coach based on its review of your Wellness Screening numbers, Wellness Assessment responses, and/or claims data, a health care company representative (not JPMorgan Chase) may contact you directly.
Please Note: Aetna and Cigna have access to your medical, prescription drug, and lab claims. So even if you do not get a Wellness Screening or complete a Wellness Assessment, you may still be contacted by your health care company to inform you of health programs available to you. Keep in mind that you do not have to participate in these programs, but if you don't, you'll miss earning Additional Wellness Rewards.
Listed below are the most common health topics addressed by the health coaches at Aetna and Cigna. However, you can contact them on any health topic.
- Emphysema and chronic bronchitis;
- Depression and anxiety;
- Diabetes/pre-diabetes;
- Healthy eating;
