City of Oxford Employees HealthyYou - It's FREE!
GET PAID TO GET A FREE WELLNESS CHECK ON COMPANY TIME!
The City of Oxford is offering employees a benefit rarely found anywhere.
The BlueHealth Mobile bus is coming to Oxford next month, and it’s designed to make taking care of your health as easy as possible. Instead of you having to take time off and drive to a doctor’s office, the doctor is coming directly to you at work.
Here are the main reasons to stop by:
-
It is 100% Free: You don’t have to pay a dime for your wellness visit or your lab results.
-
You Get Paid to Be There: Since the bus is at your workplace, you can get your check-up while you are "on the clock." You are literally getting paid your normal hourly wage to handle your healthcare.
-
Quick and Easy: In about 60 minutes, you can get your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar checked. You’ll get your results right then and there.
-
Private and Helpful: You’ll get to talk privately with a health coach about your goals and how to feel better every day.
This is a "no-brainer" opportunity to get a professional health check-up without spending any money or using up any of your personal time off. Look for the BlueHealth Mobile bus next month and take advantage of a free service that pays you to stay healthy!
Why The Bus?
"BlueHealth Mobile is a disruptive innovator,” Dr. Lee Greer, Corporate Medical Director said. “The Mississippi Delta has struggled with poor health status and clinical outcomes for decades. BlueHealth Mobile is committed to being a change agent. Our clinical care model is demonstrating that lives can be changed and health journeys altered by providing convenient healthcare that partners with the patient in shaping a better tomorrow for them. We have learned a lot in the first year, but the work is only beginning."
What Are They Going To Check?
During your visit, the medical team focuses on the "Big Three" health numbers: blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.They also check your height, weight, and Body Mass Index (BMI). These are the most important markers for your overall health, and since you get the results during your 60-minute appointment, you don't have to wait days for a phone call from a doctor's office. You’ll sit down with a health coach to go over exactly what those numbers mean and create a simple plan to keep them in a healthy range.
