Healthy Living Programs

New in 2012: When you complete one Healthy Living online program by the deadline of August 31, 2012, you can earn 50 wellness points for your Wellness Points Bank. The 50 wellness points are the maximum number of points that can be earned for completing a Healthy Living online program. However, it is feasible to enroll in and complete more than one of the programs in the suite of Healthy Living options. In addition, you can also receive a $65 wellness reward.
 

About Healthy Living Programs

The suite of Healthy Living online programs is designed to help University employees change their health habits. These self-paced online programs offer a step-by-step approach to behavioral change that can be tailored to your needs and wellness objectives. Depending upon which six-week Healthy Living program you enroll in, you may expect to receive, among other things:

  • information and advice
  • tools to create a plan and measure your progress toward meeting your goals
  • a weekly "to-do" list
  • motivational messages via e-mail

You can choose from one of the following 13 options:

  • Cancer-Fighting
  • Diabetes-Fighting
  • Easy Start
  • Get in Shape
  • Healthier Diet
  • Healthy Aging
  • Healthy Heart
  • Smoke-Free

  • Your Healthy Living Program

Who Can Participate

Any UPlan-covered employee can participate in a Healthy Living program. Your UPlan-covered spouse or same-sex domestic partner can also participate in a program.

Healthy Living and Your $65 Wellness Reward

When you or your UPlan-covered spouse or same-sex domestic partner complete one of the six-week Healthy Living programs, you can each earn a $65 wellness reward. You can only earn $65 if you have not earned a second $65 reward for the calendar year for completing another wellness program or are in the process of completing the required number of sessions with a health coach.
