Get More out of Your Benefits

Preventive care is good for you and your wallet

Preventive care — such as wellness visits and screenings — can show that your health is right on track or, in some cases, indicate an issue you need to discuss with your physician. Understanding your health is an important step to get ahead of more serious and costly care. 

In addition, when you get approved preventive care, you earn the Employee Health Credit, which saves you $600 on your medical premiums the following Fiscal Year. For more information, go to the Employee Health Credit page on allHR.
