Testimonials

I want to thank AFSPA for offering Hinge Health as part of my health plan. I've had extreme shoulder pain the past 2 years which required me to get cortisone shots. Since beginning my Hinge Health program I've seen a significant improvement in my mobility and and I am experiencing a lot less pain. This is the perfect tool for me. I don't like going to to physical therapy so hinge Health is perfect. I am now getting better sleep and not missing work as much as I was. I can't wait to start working on my back pain with Hinge Health. I am so grateful AFSPA offers this program.

Earn up to $400 in Wellness Incentives

Health Risk Assessment

$75 Reward

An HRA is a health questionnaire that evaluates your health and quality of life. You share information about your health habits and history. The HRA results provide a snapshot of your current health status and help identify personal health goals.

Physical Exam and Biometric Screening

$100 Reward

An annual physical exam can determine the general status of your health and detect health conditions early. A biometric screening assesses your overall health and measures physical attributes – blood pressure, glucose levels, cholesterol levels, height, weight, body mass index, and aerobic fitness. These standard exams can identify potential health risks and underlying medical issues.

Note: To earn the $100 wellness reward, you must complete a Physical Exam & Biometric Screening and you must pass 3 out of 5 metabolic syndrome criteria as part of your screening (HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, waist circumference, and glucose).

If you do not pass the 3 out of 5, you can still earn the $100 wellness reward after you complete one of the following wellness programs –  Lifestyle and Condition Health Coaching, or Dietary & Nutritional Counseling.
