Health Screenings
The Montana Health Centers can perform your annual health screening. These will be performed as directed by your Health Plan Live Life Well Incentive program. For State of Montana plan members: A State-sponsored health screening includes measurements as described below at a Montana Health Center or off-site event. A State-sponsored health screening is a benefit for ALL plan members (including Medicare-eligible retirees) once per incentive period. All personal information is protected by HIPAA.
Appointments are required. Attendees must follow the guidelines listed below under "What to Expect," due to COVID-19 restrictions. Please schedule now to ensure you get the date and time you prefer and to ensure staff has sufficient time to prepare for your appointment and sanitize before the next member.

What to Expect
- All patients coming to a health screening event will be asked COVID screening questions and have their temperature taken. If you have contact with anyone with a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19 and/or are running a temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit or greater, PLEASE do not attend the health screening. Contact Premise Health so your appointment can be rescheduled. Answer the COVID screening questions honestly. They are in place to reduce exposure and allow us to continue the health screening events.
- Patients must bring their own face mask and wear it into the screening location. If you cannot gain access to a face mask, please let the health center know prior to arriving for your appointment.
- Only patients will be allowed to enter the screening site - family members or other guests will not be permitted if not necessary.
- Once inside the off-site screening event maintain at least 6 feet of distance from others if possible.
- Screening staff will draw your blood, do a height and weight measurement, and take your blood pressure.
- You may request that staff measure your waist circumference. This measurement is optional. Visit the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute website for more information on what waist circumference and BMI tell you about your health.
- Health screenings are provided in a private, comfortable environment. If you have any concerns, please communicate them to the health screening staff when you check in.
- Health screenings take about 20 minutes.

Live Life Well Incentive
Part of earning the Live Life Well Incentive is completing a State-sponsored health screening between November 1, 2021 and October 31, 2022. Click HERE to learn all the details.
WIN A $50 GIFT CARD!
We are encouraging all State Plan members to get their State-sponsored health screening early in 2022. Members who complete a health screening from November 1, 2021 through August 31, 2022 will be entered to win a $50 gift card after they have completed their screening! 5 winners will be drawn at the end of each month from February through August. Winners will be notified using their official contact information.
Not only does this help you avoid the end of the year rush and possible issues, but it also greatly assists the Montana Health Center in meeting your State-sponsored health screening needs. Many of us have a tendency to wait until later in the Incentive year to complete our screening. This creates a strain on the resources available, frustration for health center staff and Plan members, problems that don’t have time to be resolved, and fewer appointments being available for flu shots, regular medical visits, and acute care visits. It is in all our best interests if we can get our screenings done earlier in the year!
Once you have completed your health screening, you will be entered to win each month starting in February through August.
- Example 1: If you complete your screening in December of 2021, your name will be entered for our monthly drawing February, March, April, May, June, July, and August.
- Example 2: If you complete your screening in April 2022, your name will be entered for our monthly drawing April, May, June, July, and August.
Members are eligible to win one $50 gift card.
Health screenings completed after August 31, 2022 (for any reason) are not eligible for this prize drawing.
Congratulations to the May $50 gift card winners! Look for another drawing at the end of June.
