Wellness Awareness Screenings

These free, confidential screenings include a health risk assessment, coronary risk profile, A1C, blood pressure, bone density, and optional PSA and occult blood screenings. 

Screenings are required for all employees prior to enrollment in the Plan and also for their spouses if enrolling in the Plan as either primary or secondary.  After enrollment, benefit eligible employees and their family members over the age of 18 can participate annually. 

Appointments are available year round at the Wood County Hospital.  To schedule a screening, email wellness@woodcountyohio.gov.  The last day to schedule a screening for 2026 is on December 11.

These screenings are not meant to replace annual physicals by your health care provider. However, if you are already seeing your physician on an annual basis, consider participating in this screening prior to meeting with your physician as a lower cost alternative for yourself and the Plan. Results of the individual screenings are not shared with the Plan; however the Plan does receive an aggregate summary of the health screening and  assessment results based on all participants. These results help plan future wellness programming.

Individuals who do not provide the required 24-hour cancellation notice for scheduled visits or who do not report to their appointment will be charged $15 for missed appointments.

By completing a screening, employees also have access to reimbursement for on-line fitness and nutrition programs.  Learn more.
