Time is running out to earn your wellness incentive. Healthy for Life has already dispersed $250,000 in wellness incentive funds, so be sure to get your share. Simply complete a personal health assessment (takes about 15 minutes) and a free health screening. Primary subscribers to the UM medical plans will receive $100 in a tax-favored account to use for medical expenses in 2012 benefit plan year. The requirements must be completed by April 30. Get started now:

1. Create your Cerner Health account by visiting www.healthyforlife.umsystem.edu.
2. Enter your email address and join the program.
3. Complete your personal health assessment — an online questionnaire that helps you understand your health risks and provides you with resources to improve your well-being.
4. Schedule your free health screening at a convenient time and location on campus. Your health screening provides you a look at your cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure, height and weight. If your screening is before noon, fasting for 9 hours is recommended, but not required (6 hours if pregnant) and drinking 64 ounces of water the day before is suggested.
