Biometric screenings will also be available to health plan eligible employees by registration. Knowing your biometric numbers can provide early detection of health problems and increase your health awareness. Knowing your numbers empowers you to assume responsibility for your own personal health choices by using your health screening information for early disease detection. Read more here.
Please note: A minimum of six people must preregister 24 hours prior to the event or it may be subject to cancellation. You must be in a health plan eligible position to register for a screening or massage. Please check with your benefits department about eligibility requirements at (866) 465-8934.
