Health Risk Assessment
Each year as part of our vision, Taking You Well Into The Future, Methodist Medical Center offers it's employees and their spouses an opportunity to participate in an annual Health Risk Assessment.
These Health Risk Assessments are conducted annually beginning October 1st and concluding December 9th.
All employees and their spouses who utilize Methodist's insurance program (UMR) are offered the opportunity for a Wellness Incentive Discount for participation in a Health Risk Assessment. Both the employee and the spouse (if on the policy) must participate to receive the Wellness Incentive Discount.
Health Risk Assessments consist of 3 parts. All portions must be completed in there entirety by all insured parties in order to be eligible for the Wellness Incentive Discount. A fourth portion is recommended for participants who wish to view the summary of their On Line Health Risk Assessment.
