Wellness Grant

The PMHIC Board of Directors and our carrier partners have generously offered wellness grants to PMHIC member groups since 2016. The following wellness grant funds are available for 2023.

• Capital Blue Cross groups = $110,000 • Highmark Northeast PA groups = $30,000 • Highmark Western PA groups = $10,000 • Independence Administrators groups = $20,000 • UnitedHealthcare groups = $10,000

Wellness grant funds help PMHIC member groups improve the health and wellness of their employees, which potentially leads to lower claims costs. The funds must be used for wellness activities or equipment that will have a positive impact on overall employee wellness. Examples include: • Biometric screenings • AED machines • Exercise equipment • Fitness trackers • Hearing tests • Gym memberships • Flu shots • First aid kits/training • Lunch & Learn education sessions • Tobacco cessation classes • Nutrition education

In early 2023, you will recieve information from your PMHIC account management team with details about the amount of the wellness grant available to you, the application process, eligible wellness expenses, how to submit expenses for reimbursement, and deadlines to submit eligible expenses. We encourage you to take advantage of available wellness grants.
