The April 30 deadline to complete the UA Choice health care plan's wellness program requirements for the fiscal year 2016 is quickly approaching. All employees, spouses and financially interdependent partners enrolled in the plan still have time to complete the following requirements:

• Complete a personal health assessment.


• Get a biometric screening.


• Earn five additional credits.

Once these are complete, you will be eligible to earn a rebate of up to $600 for you and $600 for your spouse/FIP. The wellness rebate will be paid out in biweekly payments or “credits” on your paycheck, just like you pay for health insurance.

As a reminder, all program-related information is posted online through the UA benefits page. You can also view the Incentive guidelines and requirements through the Healthyroads website. (Employees should access the site using the single sign-on link, available through www.alaska.edu/benefits/) Once logged in, you can view the information under the "Incentives" tab.

If you have any additional questions, please contact Sara Rodewald, program manager, Healthyroads, at sararo@ashn.com or 907-450-8203.
