Second Chance to Complete a Wellness Program for 2010 Enhanced Benefit! Employees
who did not complete a wellness program between January 2009 and September
2009, have a second chance to participate in a program to earn the lower
copays, deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums (Enhanced Benefit) for the 2010
plan year. Remember, you also need to complete the on-line health
assessment during Open Enrollment. Spouses, if covered on your plan,
must participate in a program and take the on-line health assessment for the
family to earn the lower copays, deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums in
2010. On 10/1/2009, the federal
government issued new regulations regarding the collection of genetic
information under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). These
regulations clarify that genetic information includes family medical history.
In response, HealthPartners has removed questions about family health history
from the health assessment. As a result of this unique situation, you
have another opportunity to participate in a program. To take
advantage of this opportunity, you must contact HealthPartners by October 30,
2009. You need to complete a program by December 31, 2009. If you have not already
completed a program and would like to register for one now, please contact
HealthPartners at 1-888-324-2074. The
