How to participate in the campaign 

In support of BHG’s infectious disease vaccination policy, we are encouraging team members to vaccinate. If for any reason you pay out of pocket and it’s not reimbursable through insurance coverage for an infectious disease vaccination, you may submit the expense through our expense reimbursement system, Certify. In addition, if you receive a vaccination against an infectious disease, your name will go in to a monthly drawing for a $100 gift card (3 cards each month will be awarded). All you need to do is send an email with an image of the vaccine documents to [email protected].   

Haven’t entered the monthly drawing yet? 

Step One. Get your vaccine and proof that you did, either as a receipt for the cost of the vaccine or a vaccine dosing card.  

Step Two. Log in to Paycor and click on Personal Information and then on the Immunization Tab. From there, follow the on-screen instructions. HR will add your name into the random drawing. 

You can find both the vaccination policy and a COVID-19 Vaccination FAQ on our HR SharePoint. Our HR SharePoint site and documents answer questions, and provide updated information coming from authorities. If you don’t find what you need, please reach out to [email protected].   

Note: Above winners voluntarily granted permission for their names to be used in this announcement.
