6 CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY THE HEALTH SCORE SimplyWell calculates a Health Score to measure your current health status. The better your health, the higher your score. This score is determined by seven clinical metrics that are measured at the onsite health screenings: systolic and diastolic blood pressure, HDL and LDL cholesterol, Triglycerides, Glucose, BMI (body mass index) and self-reported tobacco use. The lower the Health Score, the more health risks an individual has. Your goal is an 85 or above. If you aren't quite there, this score gives you a personal goal and another reason to get engaged in opportunities that will help you improve by next year. By reviewing this score annually, you will be able to determine if your healthy behaviors are helping to make a measureable change. If your score was an 84 or lower, learn and earn wellness event points: n Watch the Do You Know Your Score webinar to learn more about the various components affecting your score and ideas on how to improve it. n Participate in SHIFT, a healthy lifestyle program offered to all who are working to improve their health score.
