Preventative Health

Take advantage of these health benefits because it might save your life.

Covered Preventative Benefits

All benefited UND staff and faculty have the following preventative health benefits with 100% coverage (copay required.)

Your primary care provider will counsel you as to how often preventative services are needed based on your age, gender and medical status.

Below is an overview of covered preventative benefits. It should not be used solely to determine whether your health care expenses will be paid. The written benefit plan governs the benefits available. If you have any questions, contact our NDPERS representatives at Sanford Health at 1-800-499-3416 to verify coverage.

Annual $200 Benefit for Other Preventive Screenings

Preventative screening is available for members 6 and older up payable at 100% of the allowed charge up to a maximum benefit allowance of $200 per member per benefit period. (Co-pays will apply at the office visit.)

What does that mean?

If I want my cholesterol checked, I first call to determine the cost with the doctor’s office billing department. For my doctor office, it was $102.50. I asked my primary care provider to code this as PREVENTATIVE SCREENING and was able to get it 100% covered (since it was within the $200 allowance). After the $200 preventative maximum has been met (each calendar year), preventative services are paid according to your plan’s cost sharing amount.

You can also apply it to tests such as:

  • Other cancer screenings
  • Urinalysis testing
  • Hemoglobin testing
  • Blood sugar screening
