Q. What is the Wellness Program?

A. The Wellness Program is a discount DriveTime offers on our medical insurance premiums for any employee who wishes to participate.  We offer this discount to advocate healthy living now to combat future health risks.  The Wellness Program requires participants to complete a series of steps including:
• Biometric testing   • Personal Health Profile  • Physical  • Phone coaching (if necessary)

Q. What is a Biometric Test?

A.  Biometric testing simply means a blood draw and a collection of other vital signs like blood pressure and BMI.  The Onsite Biometric Testing will draw blood via a finger stick and tests for cholesterol and glucose.

Q. Why should I attend the Onsite Biometric Testing event in my region?

A.  The Onsite Biometric Testing event is provided to you free of charge and is one of the requirements to be compliant in the Wellness Program.  It is completely optional.  If you do not wish to attend, you may visit your own doctor.

Q.  What if I am unable to attend this date?

A.  Employees who cannot attend the onsite date will need to make an appointment with their doctor to get their lab work completed (might be a great time to get in the annual physical requirement).

Q.  Does my spouse or children who are on my plan need to attend?

A. Only covered spouses are required to attend.  Please do not bring children to the onsite event.

Q. Will everyone know if I have any health concerns?

A.  No, all health results are completely confidential.  The only thing DriveTime will be alerted about is if the requirements have been completed or not. 

Q. What happens if I don't complete a step in the Wellness Program?

 A.  Any employee who does not comply with all the steps of the program will be dropped from the program (discount removed) and will not be eligible to be in the program next year.
