I have a warning for everyone about the new requirements for the Health Plan for 2013. We were required to submit our own health screening this year. You will automatically be enrolled in Plan 3 if it was not submitted. There is an appeals process that you can go through to get to Plan 1 if you have completed the screening on time. I have appealed, and they have accepted my appeal. I have the phone number to call if this has happpened to anyone else.

The health screening consisted of a blood glucose test, a BMI analysis, a cholesterol check, and blood pressure check. If we completed the health screening, and 3 out of 4 of those tests were good, plus completed our Live Well Assessment online, we were eligible to get insurance Plan 1. It has lower co-pays, deductibles, and premiums than Plan 2 and Plan 3.
