Lose Weight, Earn Cash
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Jan. 7, 2010) — It is the time of year when we make resolutions with the best of intentions. Unfortunately, we often give up on those resolutions within a few weeks. But University of Kentucky employees can do something good for their health as well as their wallet; they can join UK Healthtrac Rewards.
UK Healthtrac Rewards, a program from UK Health & Wellness, offers a convenient and easy way for staff and faculty to make progress toward goals like maintaining or losing weight, reducing stress and increasing physical activity. The customized online guidance and optional phone-based health coaching component has enabled many UK employees to make amazing changes in their lives - from losing weight to running marathons to getting off prescription medications.
UK employees, retirees and their spouses or sponsored dependents enrolled in a UK health plan are eligible to participate.
Eligible individuals can register and complete the Health Assessment by March 31. It only takes about 20 minutes to complete, and they earn $25. Employees may choose to do more to earn more, up to $180 per fiscal year. To register and complete the online Health Assessment today, visit www.uky.edu/HR/wellness/healthtracrewards.html.
Healthtrac Rewards is administered by a third party, and employee information is completely confidential.
