Second:

If you choose to go to your own doctor then you will need to print out the “Wellness Program Physician Form 2025” from the IBEW 145 Benefits Website. Click on this link  “Wellness Program Physician Form 2025.”  Print it out and take it with you to your appointment and give it to your doctor.  (NEW) IBEW Local 145 Family Medical Center  already has this form.

Third:

The doctor must fax this completed form along with all of the required lab results to Telligen at 888-804-4595 by December 1, 2024.  You should follow up with Telligen at 833-610-1055 to verify that the completed form has been received along with all the required lab results.

Once again, the laboratory tests (Biometric Screenings) must occur some time between January 1, 2024 and October 31, 2024, and the results must be provided to Telligen no later than December 1, 2025.  Please note that the results of your Health Risk Assessment and lab results are strictly confidential between you and Telligen and will not be shared with anyone, including the Benefits Office. The Plan will receive summarized group screening data for reporting purposes only.  The Health Risk Assessment is no longer a requirement and is optional for those who want to participate and complete it.

Plan on participating in the 2025 program to earn $400 towards your 2026 individual deductible and learn more about your health!  It is important for anyone who participated in previous years to participate again in 2025.
