Cost?
We ask for a 
$10 donation  per year to help defray the cost of the program, but no one will be turned away due to lack of funds. 



Cash and Care for Wellness Program Debut
Greetings! 
     
Who would like to earn cash for personal wellness?
 
  Perhaps you would.
 Wellness is an active  process of becoming  aware of and making  choices toward a more  successful existence,  and it may get you  cash, or professional  care.
 
This newsletter will teach you how to get started with the Dance Out Diabetes' Cash and Care for Wellness Program. This is a virtual program that makes you eligible for small monthly cash drawings, Dance Out Diabetes merchandise, or individual time with a certified diabetes educator.

      This program was  made possible by the  generous support of  the AnyWare Group.

 

How the wellness program works.

You track your activity and accumulate wellness points through our secure health portal. This is a private way for you to get the right information and track your progress over time.
 
First, access the Getting Started Guide, keep those instructions handy, and then log into the system. If it's your first time, be sure to click on the "New to this site? Register now" link.  Initially and periodically we ask brief health survey questions to help evaluate our program.
 
Entering wellness points is easy. This is an excerpt from the Getting Started Guide:

Wellness Program Benefits

 

As part of the Wellness Program, you will have access to Natural Standard, a high-quality, evidence-based library with databases on nutrition, herbs and supplements, medical conditions, sports medicines, brand names, and interactive tools such as symptom checker, interactions checker, medical dictionary and calculators. You will also be able to access other links to resources that support the many dimensions of wellness.

This is not available to the general public. It is a benefit for wellness program participants.


About Those Rewards...
 
Point values will be given for your daily health marker entries into the patient portal, and you can watch your points add up in the system. Final points will be tallied at midnight before the first of the month.


Winners will be notified by private email, and only their initials will be posted within the portal. 

 

This program has international access, but only those in the United States are eligible for the following prizes (while funding lasts):

 

* $50 for the person with diabetes with the most points that month.

* $30 for the person without diabetes with the most points that month.

* $20 for one person with or without diabetes who has had at least 10 daily entries over the course of the month, selected randomly.

* Dance Out Diabetes merchandise or quality health-related products for one person with or without diabetes who participates in the program, selected randomly.

* The person with diabetes who has the most overall points at the end of our first year of this program (May, 2013), will get 1 hour with an RN, CDE and 1 hour with an RD, CDE ($500 value)

 
For full details, please read more here.

 

You can start getting wellness points by walking in our walk-a-thon this Saturday, May 5th, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Hope to see you there!
