Earn incentives
Taking care of your health is important and can lead to better quality of life.
New for 2025
We are increasing the Healthy Boiler wellness incentive by $100 for both employees and spouses. You can now each earn up to an additional $550 (employee/spouse) or $1,100 (employee + child or family) for your Health Savings Account. More 2025 Healthy Boiler Wellness Program details will be available toward the end of the year.
2024
The Healthy Boiler Incentive Program is back for 2024 and runs from Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 2024.
All benefit-eligible employees have several opportunities to earn incentives, which are deposited into their HSA or HRA to help pay for healthcare expenses.
In 2024, funds can be earned through a variety of steps – Step 1 (completing your annual physical) must be completed before payment for other objectives will be paid; however, you may complete the steps in whatever order works best for you. Employees also have the option of completing additional steps to increase the incentive payment.
- Employee only coverage can earn up to $450 in incentive dollars by completing both steps
- Employee + Spouse coverage can earn up to $900 in incentive dollars if both employee and spouse complete both steps
- Employee + Family coverage can earn up to $900 in incentive dollars if both employee and spouse complete both steps
- Employee + Children coverage can earn up to $900 if employee completes both steps

WHEN WILL YOU RECEIVE WELLNESS INCENTIVES?
Incentive payments are made on a monthly basis through the employee’s Health Savings Account (HSA) or Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA).
After completing the requirements, incentive funds will be received by the end of the day (11:59 p.m.) on the business day following your last pay date of the month (month after incentives are completed). A report in aggregate will be provided to Human Resources indicating how much each person should receive based on completed items. Human Resources will not receive any personal health information related to your incentive completion.
Ex) A person who fulfills the wellness program requirements by the end of April 2024, including submitting their information in the Healthy Boiler Portal, will receive incentive dollars by the end of the day (11:59 p.m.) on the business day following their last pay date in May 2024 into an HSA or an HRA.
- If you have an HSA: Payments for both the employee and spouse will be deposited directly to the employee’s HSA.
- If you don’t have an HSA: Employees without an HSA will receive payments to a HRA which Purdue will set up. HRA accounts are similar to flexible spending accounts (FSA). HRA funds can be used for the same types of health expenses as the FSAs; like the FSAs, funds do not roll forward at the end of the calendar year.
