Knowledge is health. Be Colorado invites you to take a few important minutes out of your day to learn more about your health by taking the annual online SUCCEED Health Assessment (HA).

If you take the HA by March 29, you will be entered into a drawing to win one of 12 airfare vouchers, each worth $300. If you already have submitted your HA you have been automatically entered into the drawing.

Almost 200 people already have completed the HA and another 300 have started the process before the airfare voucher drawing was announced. That’s almost 30 percent of last year’s total participation. It’s clear our community values its health.

Last year, we had a friendly competition among the campuses to see which campus would achieve the highest employee participation rate. The Denver campus ran away with the competition with over 21 percent of employees participating.

The competition is on again this year, and the systemwide goal is 30 percent participation.

Some employees have questioned the value of the HA. The Be Colorado wellness team sees the HA as a starting point for all employees. It’s hard to know where you’re going if you don’t know where you are.

And besides a chance to win a $300 airfare voucher and a way to learn more about your health, the HA is a foundational requirement of the new Be Colorado. Move. campaign. It’s the next step in supporting your health – investing in your health.

Through Be Colorado. Move., employees in a CU Health Plan can earn $25 a month to meet baseline movement goals – 30 minutes or more of moderate to intense movement 12 times per month. So whether you’re skiing, walking, running, dancing, biking, hiking or doing hot yoga – whatever your preferred choice of getting your heart rate up – you can earn this incentive.

The Be Colorado team is finalizing the Move. campaign details; more information will be available soon at www.becolorado.org. To start earning your incentive on April 1, take the health assessment by March 29.

Click here NOW to learn more about your health, help your campus win the participation competition, and take the first step in earning up to $300 a year to Move. (Note: New users, click “Sign Up”; returning users, click “Log In.”)

The HA is free and absolutely confidential - your employer will not have access to any individual health data. It will take about 15-20 minutes to complete, and you will receive a full report detailing where you are doing great and where there is room for improvement.

Talk to your colleagues. Help us spread the good word about the HA and Be Colorado. Move.
