It should only take 15 to 20 minutes and, once you re done, you will immediately see your results. Please note: Completing your HRA is a required activity to earn premium credits. Even if you earn ten wellness points by participating in other activities, you will not receive premium credits after the first quarter of 2015 until you complete the HRA.

The results of your HRA will help you learn more about your physical and emotional health as well as actions you can take to improve your overall well-being. Your results will also allow Alere to tailor your activities on the My Wellness at Work portal to your individual needs. WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE? Here are five good reasons to complete the My Wellness at Work health risk assessment (HRA): 1. It s quick. It should only take about 15 minutes to complete the online questionnaire. 2. It delivers immediate results. Within seconds of completing the questionnaire, you ll have your results. 3. It provides personalized information. Your HRA results will give you information about your current health status and identify your risk factors. These risk factors often have no symptoms. You can proactively identify risk factors which can lead to chronic illness. Obtaining this information will show you the areas where you can make a lifestyle change or seek treatment to avoid serious illness. 4. It is your gateway to new wellness programs. By completing the My Wellness at Work HRA you will be eligible to participate in no-cost lifestyle and disease management programs. 5. Last, but not least, you ll save money! If you are enrolled in The Hartford s health plan, you will want to complete the HRA so you can earn health premium credits in 2015. 32

HOW DO I ACCESS THE HRA? The HRA is available beginning in January, 2015 on the My Wellness at Work portal, which you can access from iconnect or directly at www.mywellnessmywork.com. If you previously registered on the site, you will use the same login ID and password you created when you registered. If you do not remember the login credentials, use the links in the Sign In box on the homepage. Once you are logged in, you will see the HRA in the center of the page. If you have not yet registered on the site, follow the steps to do so. Once you are registered, you can log in to access the HRA. WHAT IF I CHOOSE NOT TO TAKE THE HRA? Completing the HRA is voluntary; however, taking the HRA is required to earn any premium credits after the first quarter of 2015. Even if you earn ten wellness points by participating in other activities, you will not receive any premium credits until you complete the HRA. The HRA will be available on the My Wellness at Work portal until you complete it. You will receive a premium credit the quarter after you complete the HRA. Retroactive premium credits will not be provided. WILL MY PERSONAL HEALTH INFORMATION IN THE HRA BE SHARED WITH THE HARTFORD? No personal health information is ever shared with The Hartford. The Hartford may receive aggregate de-identified data in the form of reports. Using these reports, The Hartford can develop health and insurance initiatives that are most helpful to its employees. HOW IS MY HRA DATA USED AND PROTECTED? Your HRA responses are used to provide you with a customized feedback report based on your specific health risks and needs. This data may be used to identify optional health and wellness programs relevant to your health needs. Certain information you provide becomes protected health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and may only be used or disclosed without your authorization for purposes of treatment, payment or health care operations. For example, a use or disclosure for purposes of health care operations would include use of the information by a disease management vendor, to provide services to employees of The Hartford. WHY AM I NOT ABLE TO FILL IN MY HEALTH RESULTS ON THE HRA? If you participate in The Hartford s health screening program during the fall, your results will automatically be populated in your HRA. If you chose not to participate in the company-sponsored program, no results will appear and you will not be able to enter any values. To ensure the integrity of the information, self-reported screening results will not be accepted. However, even without biometric values, you can still complete the HRA, receive your results (though they will not be as comprehensive), participate in the wellness programs, and earn a premium credit. 33

DISEASE MANAGEMENT COACHING PROGRAMS WHAT ARE DISEASE MANAGEMENT COACHING PROGRAMS? If you are coping with diabetes, coronary artery disease, chronic heart failure, asthma or COPD, the caring medical experts at Alere TM will work with you one-on-one. They ll monitor your condition, help you set personal health goals big and small and provide personal coaching, customized tools and the encouragement you need to succeed. Alere TM disease management is like having a nurse on-call. You enjoy unlimited access to a nurse specialist by phone or online whenever you need it even nights and weekends. The program is free to employees and completely confidential. 34

YOUR HEALTH PREMIUM CREDIT DO WELLNESS POINTS CARRYOVER FROM ONE QUARTER TO THE NEXT? Yes; your "unused" wellness points carryover from one quarter to the next. For example, if you earn 12 wellness points in one quarter, 10 will be used toward the next quarter's premium credit and the other 2 will carryover to the next quarter. Wellness points do not, however, carry over from one program year to the next. WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY NEXT MEDICAL PREMIUM CREDIT? If you are enrolled in The Hartford's health plan, your goal is to earn ten wellness points during each calendar quarter between October 1, 2014 and September 30, 2015 in order to receive a $150 premium credit the following calendar quarter. To receive premium credits after the first quarter, you must complete the health risk assessment, which will be available beginning January 2015. The color-coded calendar on page 2 illustrates the earning periods and their respective payout periods.
