2012 Benefit Enrollment Guide - Education Management Corporation

Manage your chronic condition
Asthma. Diabetes. High blood pressure. Migraines. If you’re
living with a chronic condition, you know how much it can
impact your life. With a little help, you can get on the right track
to managing your condition without letting it manage you.
ActiveHealth offers two ways to get the help you need:
• Online coaching – You choose what you want to work on,
like eating foods that are best for your condition, building
an exercise plan, or maybe just learning more about your
condition. Whatever your goal, online tools walk you
step-by-step through the process of creating a plan for better
health — privately, at your own pace. Once you are enrolled,
you can learn more about online coaching by logging in to
www.aetna.com and clicking “Go to MyActiveHealth.”
• Nurse coach – If you’re at high risk for a chronic health
condition, or if you’ve already been diagnosed, you can work
one-on-one with a registered nurse who can help you take
control of your health and avoid future complications. Your
nurse coach can help you better understand your condition,
recognize warning signs and symptoms, help you stick to your
doctor’s treatment plan and maybe just feel better every day.
In most cases, if your claims show you have a chronic
condition, a nurse coach will call you. Or, as an enrolled
member, you can call 1-866-738-6737 to connect with a
disease management nurse directly.

Wellness Incentive Program –
Healthy Rewards Pricing
Following a healthy lifestyle makes sense not only because
you’ll feel better, but because you could spend less on
your health care. That means more money in your pocket
for other things.
EDMC rewards healthy living and positive choices for better
health with financial incentives through our wellness incentive
program. Employees who enroll in an Aetna medical plan are
eligible. There’s no additional cost to participate. In fact,
participation pays you.
Healthy Rewards Pricing is the incentive — incentive for you
to reach for your best health. And the reward? By performing
healthy actions, you can lower the premium you pay for the
health plan you choose.
Beginning on January 1:
Take Healthy Actions to Earn Healthy Rewards
You must complete a total of five healthy actions to receive
the healthy rewards.

The first three actions will get you started. You must complete
these actions before moving on to others.

2.
Participate
After your health assessment is complete, you will receive

assessment report
