Initial Wellness Activities
A biometric Wellness Screening provides overall key indicators of your health. The Wellness Screening measures your blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, A1C, triglycerides, and body mass index (BMI). You can get a Wellness Screening at no charge at:
- A JPMorgan Chase onsite event, including at a JPMorgan Chase Health & Wellness Center (where applicable),
- A Quest Patient Service Center or lab;
- Your in-network health care provider's office; or
- A CVS MinuteClinic.
Please refer to My Health > Wellness Activities & Services > How to complete a biometric Wellness Screening for details, scheduling, and information about how to get a free Wellness Screening.
The online Wellness Assessment is an online survey that asks you questions about your biometric values, current health conditions and lifestyle. The Wellness Assessment can be completed at mycigna.com (even if you are enrolled with Aetna).
Together, the Wellness Screening and Wellness Assessment provide important indicators of your
current health and potential health risks—you'll learn what you're doing well and what you can do to
improve your health, like get a health coach, participate in a weight management program, or take
advantage of other support that JPMorgan Chase offers.
- You and your covered spouse/domestic partner (if applicable) must complete both the Wellness Screening and Assessment between November 21, 2020 and November 19, 2021 at 11:59 pm Eastern time in order to:
The 2022 medical payroll contributions (payroll deductions for Medical Plan coverage) shown when you enroll on the Benefits Web Center assume you and your covered spouse/domestic partner completed the Wellness Screening and Assessment between November 21, 2020 and November 19, 2021 (11:59 p.m. Eastern Time). This means the $500 savings (or $1,000 if you cover a spouse/domestic partner) will be reflected in your 2022 medical payroll contributions. If you and/or your covered spouse/domestic partner didn't complete the Wellness Screening and Assessment by the deadline, your medical payroll contributions will increase in February 2022. The $500 or $1,000 increase will be applied in equal installments to each pay from the first effective pay in February 2022 through December 2022.
Note: You have until June 30, 2022, to open a case with your health care company if you believe your online Wellness Assessment was completed by the deadline and not reflected in your medical payroll contributions.
If you became eligible for benefits coverage — and/or your covered spouse/domestic partner is added to medical coverage — after September 1, 2021, you and your covered spouse/domestic partner have from your coverage effective date until the 2022 Initial Wellness Activities deadline (to be communicated in 2022 ), to complete a biometric Wellness Screening and online Wellness Assessment to earn 2022 MRA funds. You will automatically pay the reduced medical payroll contributions for 2021 and 2022. If you and/or your covered spouse/domestic partner complete this activity in 2021, you earn Wellness Rewards in your 2021 MRA and your 2022 MRA.
For employees currently on an approved Leave of Absence: You and your covered spouse/domestic partner are encouraged to participate in the Initial Wellness activity. However, if you are on an approved Leave of Absence for at least 45 consecutive days between September 1 and November 20, 2021, and do not complete your online Wellness Assessment during that period, you will not lose the $500 in 2022 medical payroll contribution savings ($1,000 if covering a spouse/domestic partner). Other provisions of the Medical Plan and Wellness Program will continue to apply, including the opportunity to earn MRA funds by completing Additional Wellness Activities (maximum of $640 employees and $320 for covered spouses/DPs).
