Your Blue Points Rewards Program Just Got Better

This article is intended for members enrolled in an individual health insurance plan through the health insurance marketplace (not those who have coverage through an employer). Well onTarget® and Blue PointsSM are not available to all members. Check Blue Access for Members or ask your benefits administrator to see if you have these benefits.

There are two new ways to earn Blue PointsSM, a rewards program where members earn points by reaching goals and completing healthy activities. Members who enrolled in a health plan through the health insurance marketplace can now enroll in paperless communication and auto bill pay to earn additional rewards points.

How Do Blue Points work?

The Blue Points rewards program is part of Well onTarget, an online portal that helps keep your wellness routine fun and on-track. With Blue Points, you earn points for completing Well onTarget activities like taking the health assessment, adding a fitness tracker and visiting a fitness center. And now you can earn points by going paperless and enrolling in auto pay.*  

Through Blue Points, plan subscribers and their adult dependents can earn up to $100 each in a calendar year. For example, a family of four (all 18 or over) would each be able to earn $100 a year ($400 total**). Blue Points are redeemable for digital gift cards at retailers like Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Best Buy and many others.

How to Earn Rewards with Autopay Premium Enrollment
