The incentive program is intended to help fulfill President Joe Biden’s goal of having at least 70 percent of the U.S. adult population vaccinated by July 4, according to a June 8 news release.

Eligible members will receive $50 in the form of medical expense funds once they provide verification of their vaccinations.

The BCBS FEP program is the first Federal Employees Health Benefit program to offer a vaccination incentive to its members, the statement said.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
