Special note to employees of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern California: All employees enrolled in our medical plans and their dependents (including spouses) are eligible for this new Mayo Clinic Health Assessment.
This month all Medical Trust active subscribers, including their dependents over age 18, will be receiving an announcement of our new Health Assessment! These letters will be customized with each member’s name and log-in information in order to gain access to Mayo’s web portal. An advanced copy of this mailing is attached. Retirees will receive their mailing in November.
Motivating and sustaining health behavior change is the key to improving the overall health of our population and a way of potentially managing rising healthcare costs, too. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 70% of our healthcare dollars are spent treating lifestyle-related chronic diseases. Helping people identify the risks to their health facilitates the process of making healthy changes – this is the goal behind the Mayo Clinic Health Assessment. By taking the Mayo Clinic Health Assessment, members will be able to identify, better understand and prevent potential health risks. It will take less than 15 minutes to complete and the information will be secure. After taking the Health Assessment, members will see how they are doing overall based on their results, as well as their health risks and strengths and recommendations for improvement.
