Whether a member is living with a chronic condition, ready to start a weight loss program or needs information on caring for an aging loved one, MyHealth@Empire can help. Once they log on, they can access all kinds of health and wellness tools and resources like the following:
MyHealth Assessment is the doorway to many 360° Health programs. By taking the MyHealth Assessment (available in English and Spanish), members can better understand their current health status and identify what positive changes they can make to improve their health.
 
The Personal Health Record lets members access and manage their medical records, privately and securely over the Internet. All information is stored in a central location that can be accessed anytime. Information can be shared with doctors to help ensure they know important details such as history of vaccinations, medications and test results.
 
The Childhood Immunization Scheduler projects children’s immunization schedules based on current clinical guidelines and their dates of birth. If a child has missed immunizations, the Catch-up Immunization scheduler can help identify which immunizations are needed.
 
Conditions Centers contain a wealth of information about managing a medical condition. Hundreds of articles and informational resources are available for download.
 
Anthem Care Comparison offers a side-by-side comparison of the costs for medical procedures at hospitals and other medical facilities. Additionally, Anthem Care Comparison can help members choose the right hospital by giving them access to scores about a hospital's overall quality, including the number of patients treated in a year, complication rates for a particular procedure, if the hospital is a teaching hospital and more. Please note: This program is only available in certain areas.
 
Online Communities are a powerful way for members to find support from others going through similar experiences. This is an opportunity for members to relate to others to discuss health-related issues such as smoking, pregnancy, diabetes, depression, diet and nutrition and much more.

Each Lifestyle Improvement Program includes educational readings and journaling, planners and trackers that help drive steady improvement, and other tools to help members achieve their health goals.
 
The Symptom Checker can help members identify what type of ailments might be causing a particular pain or discomfort.
 
SpecialOffers provides discounts directly from participating providers of alternative medicine such as chiropractors and acupuncturists, wellness products, laser vision correction and vision care, fitness club memberships and weight-loss programs.
 
Staying Healthy Reminders keeps members informed of the timing and frequency of important screenings, immunizations and other important health exams. Messages are targeted to certain age segments.
