How to Receive Rewards and Avoid the Tobacco Surcharge
Complete the Health Risk Questionnaire on the inHealth Wellbeing App web portal and make an appointment with your primary care provider for your biometric screening between July 1 and Nov. 11, 2022. Your biometric screening includes a tobacco/nicotine status test (primary holder only; not spouse or dependents). A tobacco/nicotine-only test will not be accepted.
If you test positive or indicate that you use tobacco and/or nicotine and want to avoid the $80 monthly tobacco surcharge, you must complete the virtual six-week BestHealth Tobacco Cessation Course between July 1 and Nov. 11, 2022. The BCBS Online Tobacco Cessation Course is NOT an option. Enroll in the BestHealth Tobacco Cessation Course by clicking here.
