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. 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
- 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 15 minutes.
- Please do not bring children or other guests unless absolutely necessary.

The lab provider for the Montana Health Centers changed to LabCorp effective March 15, 2023. Outside provider* lab orders completed at the Montana Health Centers must be viewed through LabCorp instead of the Premise website. LabCorp will also share the results directly with the ordering provider.
Results from outside provider lab orders completed at a Montana Health Center or State-sponsored Health Screenings will NOT be included in your health screening results or on the Premise web site. An "outside provider" is any provider that does not work at the Montana Health Centers (operated by Premise).
