Blueprint For Wellness Coming to Annual Conference
The Blueprint For Wellness (BFW) health screening includes a blood draw and a few measurements, such as blood pressure and waist circumference. This screening is open to enrollees (participants and spouses) on the conference’s active health insurance plans.
Attendees will receive:
- $100 in Pulse Cash in their Virgin Pulse well-being program. This incentive reward is redeemable as a transfer to your checking account or can be redeemed for gift cards, merchandise, or a charitable donation.
- Up to 140 Wellness Credits for achieving healthy results. Earn a total of 150 Wellness Credits before the end of the year and receive an additional $150 in Pulse Cash.
- Free, personalized, confidential data on 30 health factors that can be shared by the participant with their primary care provider. Healthcare providers have indicated that this valuable information supports them in creating an overall plan for the health of their patients.
BONUS: This year’s results can be entered in the Virgin Pulse Health Check. When participants and their covered spouses take the Health Check they avoid a higher deductible in 2024. Plus, you’ll have a baseline for next year’s BFW screening.
Registration is strongly recommended. Walk-ins are very limited. Register by June 2 in either of these ways:
- Log in to your Virgin Pulse account and find Quest Blueprint for Wellness Screening under the “Benefits” tab or through Benefits Access (for participants) under the “Well-Being” tab.
- Call Quest Diagnostics at 1-855-623-9355. Employer group = HealthFlex or United Methodist Church
If you can’t attend the BFW event, you can complete the BFW at a Quest Diagnostics facility or via Self-Collection Kit, or with a Physician Results Form. The deadline for completing both the BFW and the Virgin Pulse Health Check is August 31.
2022 Affordable Care Act Reporting
As in previous years, here are the steps we are taking for Affordable Care Act tax reporting for our conference for 2022:
- The Conference will file 1095-B forms for all of the participants on our health care plan. This means that local churches with less than 50 employees will not need to file any forms.
- The Conference will file 1095-C forms as an applicable large employer for anyone on the annual conference payroll.
- If your church has close to or over 50 employees, please review guidance from Wespath to help determine if you must file as an applicable large employer.
The 1095-B and 1095C forms were ordered today, February 9, 2023, and will be mailed to recipients as soon as they are processed.
Important Notice:
You do not have to wait on your 1095-B or C forms to file your tax return for 2022. Here is information from the IRS on this topic. Specifically, see questions #3 and #14.
