Carrier Member Discounts

Member discount programs Michigan carriers publish, side by side.

Several carriers give members discounts on gyms, healthy eating, hearing, vision and personal care. These are discounts and fitness benefits, not insurance coverage, and availability varies by plan type, funding and employer group. Each card below opens a page that describes the program as the carrier describes it. Looking for the full set of wellness and rewards programs?

What To Ask

Three questions before you promote a discount program.

Is it included or a buy-up?

Some discount programs come with the medical plan and others are sold separately. Ask the carrier to confirm in writing which applies to your group.

What does a member pay?

Gym programs often carry a monthly fee and an enrollment fee even when the platform itself is included. Ask for the exact member cost before you describe it to employees.

Does it apply to our plan type?

Some perks are limited to commercial, Medicare or Medicaid members. Ask which members in your group can use each program.
