Health Assessment

  • Physical
  • Emotional
  • Social
  • Health Conditions

The Health Assessment is available on-line at https://cvt.online.staywell.com or you may request a paper form by contacting StayWell Helpline at (800) 926-5455. Once completed you will receive immediate results tailored to your age and gender. It will provide you with feedback based on your:

  • Risk Level
  • Related Health Issues
  • Stage of Change
  • Motivation to Change
  • Self Efficacy
  • Barriers to Change

The Health Assessment is a resource to alert you on areas where you can address to improve your life through changing their behavior and lifestyle choices. After the Health Assessment identifies your potential risks, an invitation to a program called "NextSteps" is extend to enroll in coaching, mail or web-based programs.

Enrolling in "Fit for Life" is an effort of how each of us can contribute to our own well being. CVT has taken a proactive role is offering positive solutions to enhance the quality of life and potentially influence the long range escalating cost of healthcare.
