Biometric Screening Options for Rochester Employees

Get to know your health numbers (such as blood pressure, glucose, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides) to ensure you're not at risk for developing cardiovascular disease or other serious health complications through biometric screenings.

Here’s how Rochester employees enrolled in the University medical plan can get a biometric screening:

  • Have your primary care doctor submit your information from your annual physical using the "Biometric Screening- Primary Care Physician Form." You can search for the form under the “Programs” tab of the Virgin Pulse portal. Then print and take a paper form to your doctor or send it electronically for your doctor to fill out. 
  • Order a screening kit via the portal. Look for “Biometric Screenings- Home Test Kit (LabCorp/Pixel)" under the “Programs” tab. Please note: The Wellbeing Program year ends on August 31, so please plan to request your kit no later than July 15 to ensure you complete and mail back the blood sample on time.
     

You’ll earn 1,000 Wellbeing Points however you submit your screening!
