Health threats may be preventable or successfully treatable with early detection. Threats include heart disease, cancer, and unintentional injury. Did you know that on the MSU health plan, preventative wellness services by employees under 40, regardless of gender, is NOT ranked in our top 20 services provided to employees? This means a portion of our employee population is not receiving the appropriate well care. Start today and take charge of your health.

Magers and Mercy Clinic Primary care can help. Start with annual screenings and wellness visit. Magers Health and wellness center, as well as a large percentage of the Mercy primary care providers throughout the region are accepting new patients.

Mercy Clinic cardiology can help with calcium and vascular screenings and Mercy Clinic Urology can help increase treatment options for 1 in 8 men who will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Early detection saves lives! Unintentional injury to the wrists, hands, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles, feet can be treated as Mercy Orthopedic walk-in clinic, which now includes Saturday hours.

Magers wellness has new programs to help maintain your health and fitness as well. Including movement challenges, nutrition talks, and racquetball. Follow the wellness blog to learn more about opportunities available on campus.

Get paid to take care of your health? Employees and covered dependents, enrolled in the critical illness insurance coverage are eligible to receive a $100 wellness reimbursement for covered wellness/preventative care related activities, including PSA, lipid panel testing, and more. Critical illness coverage provides a lump sum benefit should you be diagnosed with a covered illness, including cancer. Critical illness policy may only be added during open enrollment (November 1- December 1).
