Can you report him to Minute Clinic or whatever place he works for? Usually I am not a whistle-blower, but I feel like it is a public safety risk. <br /><br />We, also, get major reductions for being healthy.... we save over $2000 a year! It is quite an incentive for us (although we were a fit family before the insurance changed).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-41801495149782629222013-01-15T10:37:24.308-06:002013-01-15T10:37:24.308-06:00My company has claimed they'll be doing some h...My company has claimed they'll be doing some health-incentives this year but haven't announced what yet.

And too funny - we have a screening every year too and the last two years the "tech" doing our screening was overweight and smelled terribly of cigarette smoke. Bleck. YES, I think people should be rewarded for improvements to their health, for good numbers, and for consistent good numbers.

My husband is self employed, so lets just say, I'm surprised we have any limbs left, we pay so much in health costs. I question EVERYTHING because I basically pay out of pocket for everything. I am all for lower health insurance based on health. I spend a decent amount of money on things in my diet to make me healthy - therefore I am healthy, because I care about my health. Yet, I seem to be penalized (paying a buttload for premiums and high deductible before insurance even kicks in). UGH!!! I get frustrated about this system:) But, I need health insurance and my kids need it, so we have it. And now I get fired up so I will stop there - and say WOW - you are healthy!! It should be "rewarded":)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16047150177172532523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-54482175236201396152013-01-14T08:54:40.461-06:002013-01-14T08:54:40.461-06:00BCBS requries us to get blood work once a year as ...BCBS requries us to get blood work once a year as well but using the program to reduce premiums is not mandatory. Everyone who receives the highest marks on their health screening gets a nice new gym bag. I love mine!
