Flexible health options benefit

What would put you on the road to feeling and looking great?

Swimming with a friend? Toning up? An alternative therapy like acupuncture or chiropractic services? Losing weight? An aerobics class?

You make the choice, and we’ll make it easier to achieve your goals with our flexible health options benefit.

Let us help pay for the membership or service you feel
best meets your needs.
 
When you’re a member of HAP Senior Plus or Alliance Medicare PPO, you receive a benefit of up to $20 monthly ($240 annually) toward the cost of a membership, service, or program:

  • Choose activities you enjoy — fitness classes, aerobics, swimming, yoga, Tai Chi, weight training, or something else that’s fun for you at any gym, fitness facility or health club. If you travel, just choose an organization that has facilities anywhere in the U.S. — or worldwide.
  • Choose the weight management program you like — membership in a qualified program, such as Weight Watchers®, LA Weight Loss® or Jenny Craig®.
  • Choose health services that work for you — chiropractic services not otherwise covered by Medicare and even acupuncture.

It’s easy to receive your benefit

Getting the flexible health options benefit (up to $20 per month) is easy for HAP Senior Plus and Alliance Medicare PPO members who participate. Each month, you mail us a completed form and a receipt, showing you paid a fee for a qualifying membership or service. That’s all there is to it.
