The 1199SEIU Benefit Funds are launching a “Healthy Living” initiative to provide 1199SEIU members with resources to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle and improve health outcomes. The information will be aggregated in a microsite on the Benefit Funds website with dedicated sections focusing on doctor-patient relationships, cardiac health, fitness, nutrition, and mental and emotional wellness. Healthy Living will include expert-sourced overviews; easy-to-follow tips and attainable goals; video presentations by participating healthcare providers; interactive exercises, such as nutrition quizzes and a BMI calculator; information on Benefit Funds benefits, programs and services; and links to external resources.
In addition, the microsite will include information about the Benefit Funds’ partnerships with a number of participating institutions to promote primary- and preventive-care services such as vital cancer screenings and health coaching for members who access their care at these institutions. Healthy Living, which will launch later this month, will also be the focus of a special edition of the For Your Benefit member magazine’s summer issue to introduce the initiative to your 1199SEIU employees and members.
