November is American Diabetes Month

Did you know that simple changes today can prevent diabetes tomorrow? We are pleased to offer HMAA members free access to VP Transform, an innovative digital diabetes prevention program powered by Virgin Pulse. View or download our program flyer and share this information with your employees.

A short online quiz will determine your risk factors for developing Type 2 diabetes. If you qualify for the program, you’ll get access to the tools you need to succeed. Just as your lifestyle can increase your risk, taking action to improve your health can reduce your risk or prevent diabetes altogether. 

VP Transform is a CDC-approved, 12-month personalized program that can lower your risk for diabetes by:

• Improving your eating habits and staying on track with a personal health coach
• Reducing your body weight with personalized goals, motivation, and a free wireless scale
• Increasing your physical activity in ways that work for you, including a free Fitbit activity tracker

Take the quiz to see if you qualify by clicking the link below. You will be asked to create an online account.

Beat the Flu and COVID

Will your employees be traveling for the holidays? Don’t let illness derail their plans. Host a worksite vaccination clinic for your employees’ convenience! Choose from flu and/or COVID-19 vaccines. Certain restrictions and limitations apply.

Pharmacy staff will practice strict safety procedures to ensure individuals are safe at all worksite clinics. The vaccine brands administered vary and are subject to availability.

HMAA members are covered for flu and COVID vaccines at 100%. Clinics are not limited to HMAA members; pharmacies are able to bill most other carriers, and participants without health coverage can receive vaccines with an out-of-pocket cost.

Scheduling will be based on pharmacy availability. To request a clinic or if you have any questions, email HMAA’s Wellness team at hmaawellness@hmaa.com.
