Spring into Healthy Habits

Spring is here, and there’s no better time to refresh your routine and focus on your health. Whether it’s getting more active, eating better, or scheduling a preventive checkup, there are plenty of small habits you can implement now to plan for the rest of the year. 

The good news? Your health insurance plan likely offers different perks designed to incentivize your wellness goals. Most major carriers include access to digital wellness platforms through your member portal. These tools make it easier to stay on track with features such as health assessments, personalized wellness plans, self-guided programs on nutrition and fitness, and access to discounted services and gear. 

Many plans let you earn rewards for simple activities like completing a health assessment, tracking your fitness, or staying on top of preventive care. Blue Cross Blue Shield offers up to $100 in gift cards through their Well OnTarget and Blue Points Reward programs. UnitedHealthcare offers rewards programs for both employer-based plans and individual and family plans. Plus, a lot of preventative care is likely covered at no cost to you through your insurance plan. To check out a list of what might be covered as preventive, see our blog post here. 

If you haven’t checked out the wellness perks available to you through your health plan, Spring is the perfect time to start.
