The Wellbeing Rewards Program empowers you to be your best—physically, emotionally, financially, and socially. You and your covered spouse/qualified domestic partner can each earn up to $600 in 2019 Wellbeing Rewards program contributions by participating in points-based activities between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019.

All Wellbeing Rewards Program contributions will be paid in the same way—as deposits to your Health Savings Account when you are enrolled in the Lower Deductible HSA Plan or the Higher Deductible HSA Plan. Benefits-eligible employees who waive medical plan coverage may participate in these wellbeing activities but will not be eligible to receive the financial incentives. Participation in the Wellbeing Rewards program is completely voluntary.

Please note that IRS rules prevent active employees enrolled in any part of Medicare or TRICARE from making or receiving contributions to a Health Savings Account. BNY Mellon contributions and Wellbeing Rewards Program contributions for these groups will be paid through payroll on a taxable basis. In addition, employees on long-term disability, pre-65 retirees, COBRA participants and those employees enrolled in Kaiser, HMSA Hawaii and Aetna International Plans are not eligible to make or receive Health Savings Account contributions.
