Taking You Well Into The Future

Leading the way into a future that is about more than healthcare.  Wellness and whatever makes people feel their best, physically, mentally and emotionally, at every stage of their life is what it is all about.

What is important to you when it comes to our wellness programs?  With your help, we will define and implement a Wellness Strategy that takes Methodist employees and their families "Well Into The Future." 

First Steps Toward Wellness

Complete the Employee Wellness Needs and Interests Survey you'll receive in your e-mail.  It takes less than five minutes to answer questions about the wellness programs you would like to see continued or offered in the future. 

Health Risk AssessmentTake Charge of Your Health

Fill out your personal Health Risk Assessment (HRA) online.  To access the online appraisal please enter your employee ID number as your username and methodist as your password.  If you have any questions on internet access, please contact Erin at Optimum Health. 

The HRA is designed to improve the quality of your life by evaluating your health status and making suggestions for the future.  Once you complete the HRA, you'll receive a confidential report at home that can help you develop a healthier lifestyle.  Completing the HRA this year is required for all employees who will participate in the Methodist Health Plan (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois) in 2009.  You will also be required to complete a lab work profile, which includes a FREE cholesterol/blood glucose test, blood pressure screening, and height/weight measurement.  A list of dates and times are shown to the right.  A 12-hour fast is required. 

The HRA is administered by Optimum Health, an independent company, and no one at Methodist will see your individual responses.  Methodist will receive a report that looks at our employee health as a whole (ie. 27% of employees want to quit smoking).  Your responses to the HRA will help us develop our overall wellness strategy for the future.
