The AHA's gold level award recognized Regence for fulfilling the gold level award criteria with a number of innovative fitness, nutrition and wellness programs. Among the winning entries included in the fitness category were the Regence Rewards program and Club Blue facilities. For the nutrition category, Regence entered its "Your Health Your Way" program, which provides a 35 percent discount on healthy food options in all of the company's Cafe Blue cafeterias. Regence maintains Club Blue fitness centers at its facilities, where employees can use exercise equipment or take a fitness class. Employees earn Regence Rewards points for participating in wellness programs, which can ultimately be redeemed for gift cards to a variety of vendors. Regence's commitment to a wellness culture is also exemplified by the company's health coaches, who are available to help employees who want to adopt healthy behaviors such as weight loss or smoking cessation.
