Incentives For You
Take charge of your healthcare decisions and the health of your family with the MyBlue Incentive Program. By participating, you can earn rewards on the MyBlue Wellness Card—a debit card that can be applied towards qualified medical expenses.
Blue Health Assessment
The Blue Health Assessment is a quick and easy online health evaluation program. When you complete your Blue Health Assessment, you will receive a $35 health debit card to use for qualified medical expenses, with an optional $15 credit opportunity. Your Blue Health Assessment answers are evaluated to create a unique health action plan. You can use it to participate in our series of online health programs.
Coaching Sessions
Need help reaching your health and wellness goals? Our online coaching sessions can help by giving you feedback, advice and encouragement as well as the support you need to make positive lifestyle changes. In addition, under both Standard and Basic Option, you’ll be able to add $5 to your health debit card when you complete online coaching sessions, available on Blue Health Connection (excluding the smoking cessation module). You’re eligible for up to $15 for completing three sessions.
Smoking Cessation
If you smoke, you may qualify for an additional benefit that waives your individual cost share for certain prescription drugs and over-the-counter smoking cessation medications when you use a Preferred pharmacy.
By completing the initial consultation of the Breathe™ online coaching session, you will earn your additional smoking cessation benefits. A special message describing your benefits will be sent to you on your Secure Message Center in the Blue Health Connection website.
Generic Drug Incentive
You pay lower coinsurance and/or copayment amounts for generic drugs than you do for brand-name drugs under both Standard Option and Basic Option members.
If you have Standard Option and you use a Preferred retail or the mail service pharmacy you may be able to save even more with the Standard Option Generic Incentive Program . Under this program, we will waive the coinsurance or copayment amount for the first four prescription fills when you switch from certain brand-name drugs to specific generic drugs. The average savings under the Generic Incentive Program is $30 to $60 per prescription fill or refill.
Diabetes Wellness Incentive
FEPBlue has designed a wellness program that aims to help members better manage their diabetes health care decisions through identification, prevention and early detection of long-term related complications through education and support.
Qualifying Standard Option and Basic Option members can participate in the diabetes wellness program and earn up to an additional $75 on the MyBlue Wellness prepaid debit card to be used for qualified medical expenses -- all for simply taking charge of your health.
