Slice of Life Program

At LGC HealthTrust, we we take your health and safety seriously. The Slice of Life health management program is designed to help you—and your LGC HealthTrust medically covered family members—get and stay healthy. View program features below or download our Slice of Life—Steps to Get Healthy (PDF) brochure to learn about 2012 program components.

Biometric Health Screenings
Recent studies show that lifestyle-related healthcare claims may be reduced once individuals become aware of their vital health screening numbers—known as biometrics. A new program component for 2012 will incentivize you to work with your primary care provider (PCP) to obtain and understand your numbers for blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides and blood glucose, plus height and weight.

Download a Biometric Health Screening form (PDF) with detailed instructions.

You are encouraged to schedule your lab work prior to meeting with your PCP, so you may discuss your results at your annual preventive care visit. (As part of federal healthcare reform, there is no co-pay due for your initial annual preventive care visit of the year.)
The form may be completed anytime in 2012 and your biometrics results are valid for submission with this program for six months (for example, if your biometric numbers are completed in November 2011, they may be used through May 2012).
You may earn an additional $25 bonus reward by submitting a Biometric Health Screening form signed by your PCP and completing the 2012 Health Assessment.

onmyway™ Health Assessment
The onmyway Health Assessment (HA) is one of the most advanced tools on the market for determining an individual's health risk. The confidential questionnaire is provided by Onlife Health (formerly Gordian Health Solutions)—a third-party vendor and health risk assessment leader—in compliance with applicable privacy laws. As an enrollee in a LGC HealthTrust medical plan, you are encouraged and rewarded for completing the HA anytime in 2012, starting on January 1. It only takes 10-15 minutes and results in a Personalized Wellness Report with valuable information about any major health risks you may have and how to reduce them. Once complete, you'll have access to the Health Awareness Program for the remainder of the year. By completing the HA online, you'll receive a $75 reward. (A $50 reward is offered for completion of a paper HA.) Online participants have immediate access to a Personal Wellness Report and, if applicable, may compare it to the previous year’s report.

You'll find complete details inside your Onlife Health activation kit, which will arrive by mail in late December or early January.

Live on Web Portal, plus onmytime™ and onmyteam™ Dedicated Health Coaching
We are excited to offer a broader range of health coaching options this year through Onlife Health’s Live on Web Portal. Once you complete your HA, you’ll have access to a password-protected website, which provides a personalized dashboard with links to self-directed educational courses, interactive health resources and goal trackers plus social networking. Participation in the Live on Portal also gains you access to a quarterly sweepstakes administered by Onlife Health.

Participants may still obtain health coaching via phone or access it through the Live on Health Coach e-messaging option—or both!

Health Awareness Program
At LGC HealthTrust, we recognize that physical activity is part of living a healthy life, but we also want to provide education for eating a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight and managing your stress. After completion of the onmyway™ Health Assessment, LGC HealthTrust medically covered enrollees, spouses and dependents 18 years and older qualify for Health Awareness Program annual reimbursements of up to $150 for physical activity (including self-reported activity) and up to $150 for non-physical activity classes and counseling. Review details and guidelines for the 2012 Health Awareness Program.

LifeResources—Member Assistance Program
The LifeResources—Member Assistance Program is available to help your household members 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call 800.759.8122 to talk to a counselor who cares about your situation and is professionally trained to assist you. All calls are confidential.

Slice of Life Newsletters
Slice of Life and Slice of Life for Seniors newsletters, mailed quarterly to LGC HealthTrust subscriber homes, feature health-improving information to help you and your family members become smarter healthcare consumers.

360° Health isn't your typical healthcare management program.
