Incentives

To encourage you to take an active role in your health and well-being, Emory provides financial incentives for your participation in healthy activities. That’s right -- you can actually save money on your medical expenses by doing things that help you live a healthier lifestyle!

2025 Incentives

You (and your spouse) can choose from a menu of different incentive opportunities (see chart below). Both retirees and spouses can earn up to $425 in incentives (a maximum total of $425 for single and $850 for retiree + spouse). Incentives earned are applied to your medical plan. You will get a credit toward your deductible or co-insurance. Incentives cannot be used for co-pays.

Activities must be completed between January 1, 2025 and November 15, 2025 in order to receive the 2025 incentives.
