Member Wellness Portal

The heart of Well onTarget is the member portal. It links you to a suite of innovative programs and resources you can use to make your health a top priority.

Your customized dashboard shows a list of personalized activities based on the information you provided in the Health Assessment. Now you have a step-by-step plan to guide you on the way to living your best life.

Program information, podcasts, articles and videos are available on the health topics most relevant to you.

Self-management programs are an online suite of structured programs that can help you put your health first. Topics include stress management, tobacco cessation, sleep health, metabolic syndrome, weight management, diabetes management and more.

If the Blue PointsSM Rewards Program* is available to you, it allows you to earn points for completing activities like taking the Health Assessment or adding a tracker.

Fitness and nutrition device integration, including Fitbit, MapMyFitness, Garmin and others,** helps make your tracking more seamless. And the Nutrition App can be integrated with MyFitnessPal and Fitbit. You just connect to your profile, and your nutritional information is available within the Well onTarget portal and app.

Personal Wellness Challenges
