Hello MCS, There is now more concrete information regarding the incentivized wellness program for 2016 and the Virgin Pulse app. Please see: http://inside.anl.gov/services/incentivized-wellness-program <http://inside.anl.gov/services/incentivized-wellness-program> The WAG members have been signed up as champions (guinea pigs) to test drive the app. So, the roll out may occur in April after all. I am going to try to get HEW to do a 'health screening event’ in Bldg 240 so that we can avoid an appointment crunch at the end of the year. Best, Krishna (wearing my Wellness Advocacy Group hat)

Hello MCS,

In case you missed it (and it was easy to do so), the Incentivized Wellness Program for 2016 has been announced: http://today.anl.gov/2016/02/health-screenings-for-incentivized-program-begi...

Main takeaways: Appointments are now available for the health screenings. All health screenings must be completed and results received by close of business on Friday, Sept. 30, 2016. The wellbeing focus for this year is on adequate sleep.

I suspect that a formal labcast will be forthcoming. The Inside Argonne informational page on this years IWP is yet to be updated. Additionally, status in the IWP still reflects last year's status. I expect both to change soon. I do not have any information at the moment on Virgin Pulse app or the points system.
