Wellness Program

(State, higher education, local education and local government employees and retirees, with some programs limited to state and higher education health plan members)

State and higher education enrolled health plan members can earn cash incentives  for completing certain activities. Find details below under Cash Incentives.

Wellness program -- State and Higher Education

Follow these three easy steps to activate your wellness program and earn your cash incentives.

1.  Activate your account on the web or with the mobile app. To get started, log on to https://www.myactivehealth.com/Portal/PortalLogin.aspx?SupplierURL=16091 or download the ActiveHealth app. Search for ActiveHealth in your app store.

New users: go to the Create An Account link and follow the steps to register. You’ll need to have your eight-digit Edison ID handy. The ID can be found on your or your spouse’s CVS Caremark card.

2. Complete the health assessment. You can do this online or in the app.  It only takes about five minutes.

3. Complete your choice of activities to start earning your cash incentives.

IMPORTANT! State and higher education members/spouses MUST complete the ActiveHealth online health assessment annually to be eligible for any cash incentives. Once enrolled state or higher education employees and/or spouses (excludes retirees) complete ActiveHealth's online health assessment, they can each earn up to $250 a year by completing certain wellness activities, if eligible. Each participant will be able to earn the maximum $250 per person ($500 annual maximum).

Click here for a printable 2023 Incentive Table that shows all the ways enrolled state and higher education members and spouses can earn cash incentives and how to get started. Note: if you complete some activities toward the end of 2023, they may not be paid until 2024.

• Enrolled state employees: You can put your wellness program cash incentives into your health savings account.
  
  • State employees can make this choice during enrollment. Note: Any wellness incentives deposited into the health savings account count toward the overall HSA IRS annual maximum. This means you would need to take the 2023 IRS limit and subtract the $500 or $1,000 seed funds from the state, plus subtract how much you think you will earn in wellness program incentives in 2023 to determine how much money you want to contribute to your account pretax. If you complete activities at the end of 2023, the incentive payment could carry over into your 2024 HSA deposit and impact your annual maximum. We’ll notify you by email if that happens.

Biometric Screenings (enrolled state and higher education employees only)
Quest Diagnostics is our biometric screening vendor. To set up your online account with Quest, click here. When you set up your Quest account for the first time, you’ll need the registration key: SOT. Then follow the instructions. You can also earn a cash incentive for getting your annual physical or well woman visit.

Here's how to get a screening
When you log in to your Quest account, you will have the option to:
•    Schedule an onsite screening if one is scheduled near you, or
•    Download the physician screening form to take to your annual physical (well visit).

You can earn the biometric screening cash incentive by completing either biometric screening option.

Once you choose your screening option, that’s the only option you’ll see in your Quest account. If you change your mind, just cancel the onsite appointment or cancel the physician screening form and select the other option. For 2023 incentives, the deadline for the biometric screening is November 30, 2023.

Your annual physical is covered by the health plan at no cost, if you use an in-network provider.

In 2023, if you want to earn the cash incentive for completing a biometric screening you can attend an onsite screening or download the physician screening form from the Quest website.
