The City of Lynchburg supports a healthy workforce by providing a Health Management Program (HMP) for City Employees.                                                                                             

This voluntary program includes regular health assessments and access to a certified nurse practitioner for health risk management and treatment of illness at no cost or co-pay. 

Note: Employees with work-related injury or illness must contact the City's Occupational Health Clinic for assessment and treatment.

Eligible employees receive vision coverage as an added benefit of participation in the HMP.                                                                                                                               

Members receive information about their health risks; enjoy the convenience of an on-site clinic, personalized medical attention and free single coverage
for the medical and vision plans. In addition, when visiting the clinic members save the $20 co-pay and the cost of minor lab fees. Enrollment is voluntary
and the employee share of the cost is waived for all HMP participants.

Eligibility
Employees holding full-time positions are eligible for membership in the HMP.

How to Enroll
Employees receive notification of eligibility during benefits orientation. Employees may enroll in the HMP at any time. Employees may enroll by:
