I believe the change in this year's Gold plan is that Delta's portion of the HRA dollars are no longer automatically funded. They are contingent on you and your wife meeting certain health parameters, and submitting them to Delta: BMI, blood sugar level, BP, etc.
How Delta will safeguard and apply this information is unknown. It's not a stretch to infer that it will become a part of Delta's "big data" on each of us, included in our files about how many times we've used the commuter policy, neglected gatehouse PAs, sick calls(!), etc.
IMO, this new requirement presents some troubling privacy issues--especially for our spouses.
