Soeaking of BMI: For Americans.....Does anyone have health benefits at work that would deny a person for having a high BMI?.....

Posted by Walt_Disney (aka Walt_Disney) Jul 13 '12, 08:24

A friend of Mrs Disney's who lives in Winnipeg Manitoba, was recently told that she can not be included on her husbands health benefits because her BMI was too high. While feind is bigger then average, I would in no way think shes considered as obese. Anyone have an idea of what the number might be for non-coverage?

Thanks.

No, but we have a program where you can earn credits against your insurance premiums by participating in a company 'wellness' program. - GregW Jul 13, 08:30
