Health Risk Appraisals

One of the best ways to reduce health care costs is to prevent disease from occurring in the 1st place. Annual health risk appraisals can alert employees to potential health threats, which can then be treated accordingly. H2O will reward employees who have annual health risk appraisals by drawing names to win one of FIFTY $50 prizes in July of each year (eligibility period July 1 – June 30).

To be eligible for the drawing, employees must:

1. Have height, weight and resting blood pressure measured annually
2. Provide evidence of having fasted blood lipid & glucose profiles taken annually if outside healthy range and every five years if results fall within the healthy range.

H2O does not need to know the results of these tests, just that the tests have been taken. To inform us, employees can

1. Have measurement taken by H2O directly (Office Visits, Fitness Assessments, Blood Draw (January of each year), or by appointment) OR
2. Have Dr. sign & return postcard indicating tests have been completed.

For information and to request a postcard, contact wellness@hope.edu
