DC Balance Wellness Program
We aren’t just bragging when we call our DC Balance Wellness Program award- winning. The American Heart Association named us a Platinum level Fit- Friendly Worksite. Participate in the DC Balance wellness program and earn up to $1,100.00 off your annual insurance premiums for pre-tax benefits!
How it Works
By engaging in the DC Balance Wellness program activities, you accumulate points upon completion of various tasks. The points earned during the program year are then converted into wellness credits, which offset your pre-tax benefit deductions premiums.
Throughout the program duration, from January to September, the maximum incentive you can earn is 45,000 points, equivalent to $1,100.00 in wellness credits.
During Open Enrollment for the upcoming new year, you’ll receive a statement detailing the total wellness credits earned in the program year. Once you select your benefit options for the new year, these wellness credits are automatically applied to your benefit premiums, reducing your costs. They are first applied to medical insurance, followed by dental and vision insurance. Any remaining wellness credit balance is then deposited into a flexible spending account on your behalf.
