2018-19 Wellness Incentives
The 2018-19 Wellness Incentive Program gives employees the opportunity to choose
from a variety of activities, including financial wellness options that will help them
“know their numbers” and maintain or improve their health and well-being. Maricopa
County cares about the health and well-being of its employees and is committed to
reducing healthcare costs and illness-related employee absences by providing them
with an incentive program based on the latest evidence-based best practices.
Who is Eligible: Employees who are enrolled in a County-sponsored medical benefit plan.
Form of Incentive: A reduction in medical benefit premiums of $40 or $60 per month,
depending on the number of points earned.
Requirements for 2018-19: Complete activities as shown in the following table by June 30,
2018. Employees who earn 80 points will receive an incentive of $40 per month, and
employees who earn 100 points will receive an incentive of $60 per month. Employees who
meet these requirements will receive their Incentive starting with their first paycheck in July
2018.
2017-18 Incentives for New or Newly-Eligible Employees: Employees whose benefits
coverage starts on or after July 1, 2017 may earn their 2017-18 incentive by earning 40
points by completing their Health Assessment only or they may earn 60 points by completing
both the Health Assessment and Tobacco Free activity. Employees who become eligible for
incentives from July 1, 2017 to the opening date of the Wellness Portal will be awarded their
incentive retroactively to their benefits effective date if the requirements are met by
November 30, 2017.
2017-18 Incentives for Employees Eligible Prior to July 1, 2017: Employees who were
eligible but did not take the opportunity to earn 2017-18 incentives by June 30, 2017 may
receive 2017-18 incentives after they complete 2018-19 incentive requirements. Incentives
will be awarded retroactively to July 1, 2017 if the requirements are met by November 30,
2017.
