As we age, staying active and maintaining our physical fitness becomes more important than ever. Regular exercise can help us stay independent, manage chronic conditions, and improve our overall quality of life. But for many seniors, the cost of gym memberships can be a barrier to getting the exercise they need.

The good news is that Medicare Advantage plans can help! Many Medicare Advantage plans offer coverage for fitness programs and gym memberships, making it easier and more affordable for seniors to stay active.

How do Medicare Advantage plans cover fitness programs?

The way that Medicare Advantage plans cover fitness programs varies from plan to plan. Some plans offer a specific gym membership benefit, while others offer a more general wellness benefit that can be used to cover a variety of fitness activities, such as gym memberships, yoga classes, or swimming lessons.

Medicare Advantage plan benefits can also grant access to popular fitness programs like SilverSneakers, Renew Active, and Silver&Fit, each offering a range of training locations and at-home workout options.
