Program Alternatives
St. Luke’s Healthy U is committed to helping you achieve your best health status. Occasionally, it may be appropriate to modify the Healthy U targets. For example, certain health conditions may make it unreasonably difficult to satisfy, or medically inadvisable to attempt to satisfy, the health targets. In such circumstances, St. Luke’s Healthy U will consider providing individuals with reasonable alternatives to qualify for the premium reductions, of if medically necessary, waivers for the Healthy U program requirements. Your personal healthcare provider will need to complete and submit a “Written Request for Alternative or Waiver”. Click here to download.
Get $30 credit for preventive screenings and immunizations!
Employees who enroll in the St. Luke’s health plan and Healthy U (complete a KYN Screening and online Health Assessment) will have the opportunity to earn a $30 credit for meeting ALL age and gender appropriate preventive health measures. Preventive Health Measures will be self-reported during the Online Health Assessment. Those who do not meet the preventive health measures at enrollment will have a second chance to qualify for the credit during Mid-term exams in September.
