Health Risk Assessment Program

Health Risk Assessment Program


As a partner in the healthcare industry, it is important for our employees and their spouses/domestic partners to be informed about their health and potential health risks and seek care. For this reason, we offer a confidential Health Risk Assessment (HRA) Program.

The HRA Program is a tool to educate individuals on personal health risks through encouraging completion of a health assessment questionnaire and biometric screening plus one of the following: annual preventive medical care visit, cancer screening, or two 1:1 wellbeing coaching sessions.


Eligibility


All U.S.-based regular full-time and part-time employees of Exact Sciences hired or rehired before April 30, 2024, and their spouses/domestic partners are eligible to participate. Contract workers, independent contractors, temporary employees, seasonal employees and interns are not eligible. Participation in Exact Sciences medical coverage is not required.


For employees experiencing a qualified life event which adds a non-employee spouse/domestic partner to medical coverage on or after April 30, 2024, the spouse/domestic partner will receive the same benefit credit as the employee for 2024 and 2025. As an example, an employee gets married on August 5, 2024. The spouse is not eligible to participate in the HRA program in 2024. The spouse’s benefit credit will be the same as the employee’s benefit credit for 2024 and 2025.


Financial Incentive 


Employees and their spouses/domestic partners who participated in the 2024 HRA Program may be provided a reduction in their employee contributions for medical coverage in 2025.1


A benefit credit (on a per pay period basis) will be given to all employees and spouses/domestic partners who fully completed the requirements of the 2024 HRA Program by the required deadline and enroll in Exact Sciences medical coverage in 2025.2


Here is how the benefit credit works:


  • Full incentive. The full benefit credit incentive is offered to employees and spouses/domestic partners who fully completed the requirements of the HRA Program and enroll in Exact Sciences medical coverage the following year.


  • Partial Incentive. Fifty percent of the benefit credit incentive is offered to employees if either the employee or the employee’s spouse/domestic partner, but not both, fully completed the requirements of the HRA Program and enroll in Exact Sciences medical coverage in the Employee + Spouse or Family Tier the following year.


  • No incentive. No benefit credit incentive is offered to employees if they and their spouse/domestic partner did not fully meet the requirements of the HRA Program.


1Exact Sciences reviews the health benefit credit incentive annually.

Medical plan employer contribution savings vary from year to year and are not guaranteed.


2Employees hired on or after April 30, 2024, will automatically receive the full benefit credit incentive for 2024 and 2025.
