As previously announced, employees and family members enrolled in IU-sponsored employee medical insurance will have access to employee health centers through Marathon Health starting Wednesday. This includes the new center in Bloomington, as well as established centers in Indianapolis and in other states.

The Bloomington center, at 121 N. Pete Ellis Drive, Suite 102, will offer appointments for preventive care, acute (sick) visits, chronic condition management, health coaching, mental/behavioral health and lab services. Preventive care and labs received through the centers will be available at no cost, while most other visits will cost just $35.
