Revised Wellness Program Requirements – April 2020
The 2020 Wellness at Williams Program kicks off in January.
For those new to the Wellness at Williams program or who need a reminder, BCBS Medical Subscribers can receive a $500 taxable incentive by earning 500 points, and enrolled spouses can also participate and receive a $100 taxable incentive. All requirements must be completed by October 31, 2020.
We will continue the program this year with a diverse offering of activities, including many offerings from local businesses and individuals. Once again, we will be actively sending personalized email reminders each month, letting you know exactly what you need to earn your 500 points.

How It Works
Human Resources receives a monthly report of participants who have earned 500 points in the prior month. Your $500 or spouse $100 incentive (less applicable taxes) will be included in the second payroll of the following month. Your non-employee enrolled spouse will receive a check at your home address. We’ll send you an email letting you know when it is coming. We will also send emails each month reminding you what steps are left to complete the program.
Your automatically awarded points for this year’s program have already been updated at bluecrossma.ahealthyme.com. We expect the first payment for those reaching 500 points to take place on March 20th.
