Live Well Tobacco Cessation Program
The Live Well Tobacco Cessation Program is available to active, benefits eligible employees. You do not need to be enrolled in a medical plan offered by Citi to participate. Spouses/partners may also participate in the Live Well Tobacco Cessation Program, but only if they are enrolled in a medical plan offered by Citi. .
If you choose the Health Coaching option, your coach will work with you to identify the challenges you face when quitting and set goals to overcome them. You and your spouse/partner may be eligible for free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). If you have stopped using tobacco products recently, a health coach can help you keep your commitment to being tobacco-free.
Program representatives may reach out to those who have indicated on their Live Well Health Assessment that they use tobacco products or have stopped using tobacco products within the past 12 months, but you do not need to wait to be invited. To get started, log on to the Virgin Pulse platform or call Virgin Pulse at 1 (855) 814-5595.
You can also complete a Journeys®, digital coaching focused on quitting tobacco use. (See below.)
Tobacco Attestation
If you and your spouse/partner are enrolled in Citi medical coverage during Annual Enrollment in 2023, you will have the opportunity to complete the Tobacco Attestation on Your Benefits Resources™. If during that time you indicate that you use tobacco products (including vapor products and all forms of smokeless tobacco products) or if you fail to complete the Tobacco Attestation before your enrollment deadline, you and your covered spouse/partner will each pay a $600 annual penalty on your health care coverage in 2024.
If you participate in the Live Well Tobacco Cessation Program in 2024 and you're paying the tobacco penalty, these payments will stop once you complete the Live Well Tobacco Cessation Program through Virgin Pulse (within one to two pay cycles of program completion). You will also receive a refund of the tobacco penalty payments that were made before you completed the Tobacco Cessation Program.
Note: If you are age 18 or over and are enrolled in the Citi medical coverage, you may be eligible to receive generic over-the-counter and generic prescription drugs, or Chantix smoking cessation products at no cost to you.
IMPORTANT: Even if you plan to continue with your current Citi medical plan, you must complete the Tobacco Free Attestation before your Annual Enrollment deadline or you will default to "tobacco user" status and will pay the tobacco penalty in 2024.

Transform Diabetes Care
If you and your family are enrolled in a Citi medical plan and you or a family member has diabetes, you may be invited to participate in CVS's Transform Diabetes Care program. The program offers highly individualized support to help three key components:
  • Blood glucose control through a connected blood glucose meter. A trained professional will follow-up with you if you have an out-of-range reading. Your results and a health summary report can be shared with your health care providers. ;
  • Medication management including one-on-one counseling with a CVS pharmacist, notifications to your health care provider about gaps in your therapy and how to resolve the problem and medication management support tools; and
  • Condition management including coaching with Certified Diabetes Educator, MinuteClinic diabetes preventive monitoring visits with results logged into your electronic health record, personalized educational tips and motivational messages integrated into your blood glucose meter and actionable health messaging delivered on your prescription bag label.
This approach encourages more frequent blood glucose checks, provides just-in-time outreach from Certified Diabetes Educators and automates the often-cumbersome task of ordering supplies and manually tracking blood glucose readings. Most importantly, participants receive personalized, real-time information that can enable more confident self-management and improved glycemic control.
