To encourage ongoing health awareness, enrolled A&M Care Health Plan members and their covered spouses are required to receive an annual wellness exam/annual physical each benefit plan year to receive the lower wellness premium rate on their insurance.
Highlights of the Wellness Exam Incentive:
- Have a wellness exam between September 1 and June 30.
- Applies to employees AND covered spouses enrolled in the A&M Care Plan.
- A premium differential of $30 per month will be added to the premium for each individual (you and your spouse) who does not complete the wellness exam incentive by the June 30 deadline.
- Retirees will automatically receive the lower premium.
- BlueCross BlueShield will record the incentive completion through the claims payment process.
