UC WELLNESS PROGRAMS

Following its 2008 launch of UC Living Well, UC’s wellness initiative, the University continues to offer a wide range of wellness resources.

This includes access to the StayWell Health Management program, which features an annual health assessment, online health resources, interactive tools, and wellness coaching. The StayWell program is available to those enrolled in UC medical plans except Kaiser, which provides similar wellness resources to its members via its Healthworks program.

Employees represented by some UC unions are not eligible for StayWell because participation has not been agreed to on behalf of their members during the collective bargaining process.

A key first step in your wellness and making positive lifestyle changes is taking a health assessment — online or on paper. Again in 2010, StayWell will offer an incentive for completing an online or paper health assessment. Employees will receive a $100 gift certificate and spouses/domestic partners a $50 certificate if they complete the health assessment by April 15.
