Follow these step-by-step instructions to get the most out of participating in our Baystate Healthy programs and services.

Step 1: Register for the WebMD Portal and Set Up the App

Your personalized and confidential WebMD portal provides you access to a variety of easy-to-use tools from one of the most trusted sources of health information. Registration takes about 5 minutes and upon successfully registering, you will be automatically redirected to the portal’s homepage. Write down the username and password you create for your WebMD portal and store it in a safe place. You will be required to log in each time you access this secured portal.

Tip: Make it easy on yourself. Once registered in the WebMD portal, download Wellness at Your Side from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Once downloaded, open the app and select "Connection Code", enter BHY. You’ll not only have quick and easy access to the portal, but you can access the portal using touch id, rather than a password. To set up touch ID, select your Initials in the upper right corner, select settings, then turn on Touch ID.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I forget my WebMD username or password? Call the WebMD Customer Service number at 800-488-3140 and they will retrieve your username and reset your password.

Can I access the WebMD Portal from home? Yes. You can access the portal from any public or private computer, mobile phone or tablet. Simply type the URL (www.webmdhealth.com/bhy) into your internet browser and log in with your username and password. Or better yet, see the Tip above and download the App!

Will I lose my WebMD portal access, if I am no longer employed at Baystate? If you are no longer employed or no longer in a “benefits-eligible” employee status, you will lose access to the WebMD portal. However, you can merge your WebMD health record with a WebMD.com consumer account. You must do this while your WebMD portal is still active. Call Baystate Healthy at 413-794-4939 for further instruction.

Step 2: Complete the WebMD Health Questionnaire

After registering for your WebMD portal, complete the online confidential health questionnaire. Click on the link to the Health Questionnaire right from the WebMD homepage. The health questionnaire takes about 10 minutes to complete and includes a series of questions about your health needs, strengths and challenges. Your responses are combined to build your personalized wellness profile. It includes easy to answer questions about your lifestyle behaviors (such as diet, exercise, smoking, stress) and some physical measures (such as height, weight, cholesterol, and blood pressure).

Based upon how you answered the questions, a WebMD Health Coach may contact you to determine your interest in coaching. This is a free service and provided as one of the complimentary benefits of working at Baystate.

Can I retake the Health Questionnaire if there is a change in my health or lifestyle habits? Yes. You can retake the health questionnaire as often as you need to. If you participate in our voluntary incentive program; MyHealth Rewards, completion of the Health Questionnaire is an annual requirement. Taking the Health Questionnaire at least once a year allows you to see progress over time and provides you with updates to your personalized wellness profile.

Step 3: Participate in our Programs and Services

You are now ready to start engaging in all of the program and services available to you. Your wellness profile, on the health questionnaire results page includes recommendations to programs based on how you answered the questions.
