Wellness Incentive

Well Wisconsin allows you and your spouse (if enrolled in the State Group Health Insurance Program) to each earn an annual $150 incentive. To earn this incentive, you and your spouse must each complete a health assessment, health check activity, and one well-being activity (by mid-October*).

• Health Assessment: Captures current health behaviors through a brief questionnaire (15-20 minutes) focusing on stress, sleep, nutrition and physical activity.
• Health Check Activity:
  • Biometric screening – Provides a picture of overall health (includes measurements for blood pressure, body mass index, cholesterol, triglycerides & glucose) or
  • Dental exam – Provides a picture of overall dental health (by getting a preventive dental exam) or
  • One coaching session – Provides an opportunity for you to work with a WebMD Health Coach to help you work toward your goals!
• Well-being Activity pdf : Helps with overall health and well-being (examples: Five Fruits & Vegetables to Thrive Challenge, Move for a Million Steps Challenge, Well Wisconsin Radio).
