ALL INSTRUCTIONS ARE IN YOUR MYCIGNA.COM PORTAL, UNDER THE WELLNESS TAB.
TO EARN YOUR 2024 INCENTIVE, COMPLETE BETWEEN 9/1/2022 AND 8/31/2023:

Health Incentives are even easier to achieve when you receive your annual preventative screening with your Primary Care Physician (PCP). This allows you to earn 19 points (out of 20 total points required) toward your Health Incentives!
Cigna and UMR members receive annual preventative visits at their Primary Care Physician with no co-pay, deductible, or out-of-pocket cost. Cigna member can also complete a virtual wellness exam with MDLive.
