Go Red for women on February 5th for National
Wear Red Day! The American Heart Association
(and naviHealth) wants YOU to wear RED to
support a National Awareness Campaign for
Women About Heart Disease. Did you know that
heart disease and stroke kill 1 in 3 women, yet it is
80% preventable? That is more than all of the
cancers combined! Participate & one lucky
colleague from the team who bleeds the most
RED will win a Fitbit! Email us with your team or
individual pictures!
DID YOU KNOW?
A 20 oz. bottle of Coca-Cola has more sugar than a large
Cinnabon! When you drink one 20 oz. bottle of Coca-Cola, you are

sink in the next time you choose a soda over water!

Coming Soon… Onsite Biometric Screenings!
In the upcoming weeks, we will be conducting
our annual biometric screenings at
Headquarters (February 9 + 10) but that
doesn’t mean those of you who work outside
of Nashville can’t participate in the fun. All you
need to do is make an appointment to visit
your local physician for an annual wellness
exam. Services that will be provided include
height & weight measurements, BMI
calculations, blood pressure readings, glucose
levels, and cholesterol levels!
naviHealth now has a Fitbit Activity Group!
What’s better than some friendly colleague
competition? Let’s see who can outwalk the
others in 2016! The colleague with the most
steps at the end of the month will win a prize!
All you have to do is go to fitbit.com, search
for the naviHealth activity group under the
community tab & join! Don’t have a Fitbit?
We have you covered! Next time you have
to schedule a meeting make it a ‘walking
meeting’ & let us know! We will enter your name in a monthly drawing to win your very
own Fitbit! (hint: the more you walk & talk, the higher your chances are to win!)
We Rally… you should too! One of the many
perks of naviHealth benefits is Rally! Head
over to MyUHC.com and check out this great
benefit! Once you have set up your account,
you can access it directly from WeRally.com!
For those of us always on the go-- there is
even an App you can download! Rally is a
great way to stay motivated and earn great
rewards (and money) for maintaining a
healthy lifestyle! What more could you
want?
