Premium Contribution Incentive
Employees and covered spouses who choose to participate in the wellness program in 2024 can earn a maximum reward of $1,200 via pay incentive (credits) in 2025 to offset premium contributions for a health plan.
Each program component has been assigned a specific point value. See chart below for activities and point values.
Employee only (spouse not covered) earns at a rate of $1 per 1 point earned (1,200 possible points for a maximum of $1,200 in credits). Employee and covered spouse earn at a rate of $1 per 2 points earned (2,400 possible points for a maximum of $1,200 in credits).
Points and participation are tracked individually for employees and spouses. Incentives will then be calculated based upon total Employee + Spouse points earned.
The incentive credit(s) will be added to your 2025 paycheck and are subject to tax withholding. The maximum annual incentive for successfully completing all components is $1,200 for both employee only and employee-and-spouse coverage.
