Q.
My activities are not marked as “complete” in the NJWELL Rewards Lobby. What should I do?
A.
The health assessment registers as Completed in the NJWELL Rewards Lobby once you’ve responded to all questions (leaving no required fields blank) and received a personal health score between November 1, 2020 and October 31, 2021. If you did not receive a score, the health assessment was not completed. Remember, you must take the health assessment each program year.
Your health screening will be reflected as Completed once your results are submitted to, and successfully processed by, Quest Diagnostics (Quest). This process may take up to 10 days based on the method you select. You will be notified by Quest regarding your results status. Always remember to check your email for important messages regarding the status of your NJWELL participation.
Q.
If I have a chronic condition, or do not have healthy levels, do I still qualify for a reward?
A.
Yes. You are rewarded for completed activities designed to promote healthy behaviors. The incentivized activities are designed to help you identify potential health risks and take ownership of your health.
