How to Activate Your Medicare Advantage Fitness Benefit
Activating your membership takes only a few minutes once your Medicare Advantage coverage becomes active. Following a systematic process ensures immediate access to local clubs and online classes.
First, locate your primary health insurance card and identify your specific Medicare Advantage carrier. You will need your member ID number to verify your supplemental eligibility.
Next, visit the website of your plan’s designated fitness network, such as SilverSneakers, Renew Active, or Silver&Fit. Create an online profile using your member details to generate your unique fitness member code.
Take this fitness code directly to your chosen participating fitness facility or YMCA. The front desk staff will enter your code into their system and issue a standard facility keycard at zero cost.
If you prefer home workouts, log into the fitness platform to order your annual Home Fitness Kit. You can also download the provider’s mobile application to stream on-demand workouts immediately.
