Healthy Blue Achieve is Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan’s wellness PPO plan. Healthy Blue Achieve members get lower out-of-pocket costs for making a commitment to live a healthy lifestyle.

Your patient will need to work with you on an improvement plan. For these three health measure targets only, check the boxes on the Qualification Form (PDF) to let us know they're working to improve. If you submit their form without checking the boxes, their out-of-pocket costs will go up.
Your patient will need to sign up and participate in the Blue Cross® Health & Wellness Steps walking program, powered by WebMD®, for the rest of their benefit year or until their body mass index falls below 30.
Your patient will need to sign up and participate in the Blue Cross Health & Wellness Tobacco Cessation Coaching program, powered by WebMD, for the rest of their benefit year or until they stop using tobacco.
Once your patient achieves the health measure targets, you can submit a Physician Verification Form (PDF). After Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan receives and processes the form, your patient will no longer need to participate in the wellness improvement program.
If you believe your patient can’t meet the health measure targets or activity requirements because of a medical condition, you can request a medical waiver for them. You’ll need to complete the medical waiver section of the Physician Verification Form (PDF) and return it to us within 120 days of their plan effective date.
