Sister Pam Galli sent along some information, reminding members to get their wellness incentive credits.
This Friday, February 20 is the deadline to complete the Health Assessment to earn a $100 health care credit. The information is fairly simple and I was told you can skip questions where you do not have the info, it will be accepted, and you can update it later if you want to. I called my doc and they checked my chart and gave me the info over the phone; we only need blood pressure, Total Cholesterol & HDL, dates of flu and tetanus shots. If you attended the Health Fair you will have some info.
There are 2 more Health Fairs scheduled; CCRI in Lincoln on 2/18 from 11-2, or Kent County Court House in Warwick on 2/20 from 12-2. You must preregister by calling 877-239-8557.
While you’re on the website you may want to browse the 5 week Online Health Coaching Programs. You can earn up to $100 by completing 2 of these courses before May 31, 2009.
Find more information in the health assessment instruction brochure.
