    What do you mean by Renew Active?

     

    My Medicare Advantage plan automatically renews every year. For it to renew I don't have to do anything. I receive all the information about changes several months before renewal is to take place giving me time to decide what I want to do. I like my plan and have had it for a long time. I live in Central Texas and have Baylor Scott and White advantage.

     It's nothing to do with how you pay for or renewal of your Advantage plan. Renew Active is a benefit of some UHC Medigap and Advantage plans that pays for gym memberships for members.

    NO- not by brand name - Renew Active is the registered name fitness program for United Healthcare - other Medicare plan insurers use different ones or their own trademarked name.

     

    AND you have to buy a plan which has this benefit specifically covered - not all UHC MediGAP plan G’s contain extra benefits.  They are only federally mandated to cover the things that are stipulated as Medicare coverage - and fitness isn’t one of them - it would be extra.

    My plan has Silver and Fit. I have never used it. I spend most of my time at The Crossover in Cedar Park, Texas ice skating. The Crossover offers a lot of other sport activities too.

    IceSkating is good exercise but I doubt any of these fitness programs cover it specifically 

    Yes, Silver and Fit is another Medicare fitness program but think it might only be available with some Medicare Advantage plans - don’t know about any Medigap plans that may have Silver and Fit as an extra benefit.

    There are tons of them -just to name a few.  Each has their own rules and fitness programs and providers - 

    • Renew Active(R)
    • Silver & Fit(R)
    • Silver Sneakers(R)
    • OnePass(TM)
    • FitON(R)

    Everybody just read your policy (contract) if it’s included it will be there by name with all the criteria for use and any limiting disclosures.
