A health risk assessment is a free online program that helps determine your risk for certain medical conditions and gives you a personalized plan for achieving your specific health goals. Available to all APWU Health Plan members, the assessment analyzes your responses to a series of health-related questions and creates a profile with information to put you on a path toward good physical and mental health.
Gain valuable insights into your personal health
Taking the online health assessment can help you identify personal health risks and learn healthy habits. Steps you can take to protect your health include:
- Get an annual checkup
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Find ways to fit physical activity into your life
- Eat more fruits and vegetables
- Make a plan to quit tobacco
- Learn effective ways to manage stress
- Take steps to live a heart-healthy lifestyle
- Make small lifestyle changes to help prevent diabetes
The assessment takes about 15 minutes to complete, and you will receive immediate feedback on your results. Plus, you’ll have access to health improvement resources and tools, such as quizzes, exercise programs, nutrition and meal planning, and action steps to help you achieve your personal health goals.
