Don’t miss your FINAL opportunity to avoid ADDITIONAL increases in your 2018 health insurance premiums. In order to avoid these additional premium costs
EVERY COVERED EMPLOYEE under our health insurance plan must complete BOTH the Personal Health Assessment (PHA) and a Biometric Screening
BEFORE July 31, 2017.
To complete the PHA, please log on to
www.bcbst.com and go to Blue Access.
Instructions to complete the PHA can be accessed from this
link.
To complete the Biometric Screening, a basic annual well visit (physical) must also be completed by the employee’s medical provider or a local clinic. Covered providers can be located by calling the Member Services phone number on the back of your insurance card (
1-800-565-9140). Biometric Screenings may also be done at many of the clinics that perform DOT physicals for FirstFleet drivers.
The Physician Screening Forms are personalized this year with your specific information to take to your primary care physician. You can access these directly on your BlueAccess account at
www.bcbst.com. Blue Cross can email one or mail it to your home by calling 877-412-4828.As a note, all newly-hired employees hired after May 31, 2017 will be grandfathered into the wellness qualifications for this year. These participants are not required to take the PHA nor Biometric Screenings in 2017.
