How Do We Manage Health?
• Focus on prevention, early detection and
management of risk factors that are major
causes of chronic illness and death
• Heart disease is the #1 health problem locally,
regionally and nationally
• This year we are helping our employees know
your numbers: your own risk factors for
developing heart disease
You and Your Doctor
• A primary care doctor helps you prevent,
detect and treat risk factors for heart
disease:
– High Body Mass Index
– High Blood Pressure
– High Cholesterol
– Diabetes or Pre-Diabetes
– Smoking

Healthy Equation
This year, we are launching a new initiative for our
adult health plan members. It focuses on the
importance of our members:
1) building a relationship with a primary care
physician and
2) getting screened for conditions that increase
the risk of developing heart disease and
diabetes.
Healthy Equation
 See your doctor and get your cholesterol and
diabetes screenings in calendar year 2014
(Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 2014)
 If all three components aren’t completed by Dec.
31, 2014, members will have a $30 per pay
surcharge, in effect from Jan. 30, 2015 through
June 30, 2015.
 Applies to employees with our medical plan and
their covered spouses; it does not apply to children.
What’s the Healthy Equation?
9
Healthy Equation
• Any time during calendar year 2014: many have done it already!
• Visit does NOT have to be a physical or “check-up”
• Screening is ordered by your primary care doctor and results go to
that doctor
• Screening can be done before, during or after the visit; it’s up to
you and your doctor to decide
• No reporting needed by doctor or patient
• No primary care doctor? We’ll help find you one.

Combined Leave Benefit
No further reduction to the standard CLB accrual rate
Part time Employees: Employment status up to .9
will accrue CLB based on their employment status. If you
are a .5 employee & work more than 40 hours in a pay
period, your pay period CLB accrual will max out at the .5
status.
• Example: Non-exempt employee .5 employed by AAMC 6
years earns 2.616 hours per pay. If the employee works
additional hours during the pay period, his/her CLB
accrual will not exceed 2.616 hours.
11
Combined Leave Benefit
In addition, the maximum carry over amount will be relative
to the updated part-time accrual amounts, (currently the
part time carry over is no different than Full time
employees).
Example: Using the example in our previous slide this same
Non-exempt employee prior to 7.1.14 could carry over 204
hours, however as of 7.1.2014 the maximum carry over is
102.024 hours.
