The Rural Carrier Benefit Plan wants to help you be at your healthiest.

RCBP members can earn wellness rewards for completing a Health Risk Assessment and a biometric screening. The rewards can be earned once per calendar year each covered family member age 18 and older and may be used to help pay for a qualified medical expenses, such as your cost-sharing amounts (copayments, coinsurance and deductibles) for future services, for any covered family members.

Your earned incentive funds will be preloaded onto a PayFlex® card.  The card can be used for IRS eligible medical expenses such as co-payments, deductible and coinsurance, prescription drug copayments, dental and vision services and eligible over-the-counter drugs. You can access your funds at any time through the PayFlex website.

You will receive your PayFlex card in the mail after you’ve earned an incentive  Then as you earn additional incentives, the funds will automatically be applied to your card. So hold onto your PayFlex card, don’t discard.

Using the PayFlex card is easy.  Simply swipe your card at the point of service and select either “debit” or “credit” to pay for medical expenses. After you swipe the card, our system automatically checks to see if you have enough funds to pay for the expense and if the charge is eligible for reimbursement.

It is easy to get started. Take your Health Risk Assessment today.

A Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is like an interview you take online. It is not that much different from the questions your doctor would ask during an annual checkup. You share information about your health habits and history. Then, you get a personalized health summary that can help you understand your health needs.

Once you know your health needs, you can set meaningful goals for yourself. Whether you need to lose a few pounds, quit smoking, improve your diet, or manage your overall health more effectively, the wellness tools from the RCBP can help you achieve your goals.
