MyHealth race ends tomorrow

After having led the race the whole way through, UPMC Bedford Memorial looks as though it's secured its place as winner of the MyHealth race with 89.5 percent of staff having completed their two healthy steps. As we've reported in the past however, it remains a close race. Coming up fast are Chartwell Pennsylvania with 85 percent completion rate and Diversified Services with 84.8 percent completion rate. Other top contenders include UPMC Health Plan and UPMC Northwest. Since anything can happen in the home stretch, be sure to check out the Nov. 28 issue of Extra! to find out which facility finished first and see where in the standings your team placed.

One step away

While the majority of UPMC employees have taken advantage of the chance to earn the 2009 MyHealth deductible credit, there are some who have completed just one healthy step, like a flu shot or doctor's visit, but have yet to complete the simple second step of completing the MyHealth Questionnaire.
