Obviously, company-sponsored health insurance is changing for employees. My daugther's large employer offers a monetary incentive. They will deposit money in the employees' HSA if the employee can meet all of the following markers: nonsmoker, blood pressure in normal range, cholesterol under 200, and BMI under a certain number (I forget the number).
She missed the BMI number. Her weight vs. height was off by a pound. She was classified as overweight, even though she wears a size 4 pants! Therefore, the BMI must not take bone structure into consideration.
