Humana SilverSneakers Fitness Program
Exercise is a critical part of healthy aging and preventing health conditions. Humana SilverSneakers Fitness Program is a free fitness benefit available to most Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans.
SilverSneakers is a fitness program available through Humana Medicare Advantage plans. It provides access to various workouts at gyms and other locations nationwide. It also includes on-demand videos and classes in the comfort of your own home. In addition to the exercise classes, SilverSneakers has social activities and amenities to help members stay active and connected with others in their community.
Members can take a wide range of classes, including Latin-inspired dance, yoga, tai chi, and boot camp. Classes are led by supportive instructors and are tailored for seniors. In addition, SilverSneakers has a mobile app where members can connect to a supportive virtual community and track their exercise progress.
The SilverSneakers fitness program can be found in many different Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare Supplement (Medigap) policies. These private Medicare plans are often more flexible than traditional Medicare plans and can offer additional benefits. For example, some Medicare Advantage plans include fitness programs at local YMCAs and other gyms, while others include the SilverSneakers benefit at select Planet Fitness locations. These plans are a good option for seniors who want to stay active and socialize with other age group members.
