Joining a health club almost always has a cost, but there’s good news; if you have health insurance, and who doesn’t, you may be able to get a free or greatly reduced membership! Many health insurance companies and employers are catching on that healthy people/employees cost less than unhealthy ones – so they offer club memberships as a benefit.

Whether you already have health insurance or you’re shopping around for the right coverage, make sure you read the summary of benefits. This outlines each health plan’s costs and overall coverage. If you don’t see a gym membership listed as a self-care perk, ask your provider for more information.

You’d be surprised at the broad range of complimentary benefits your insurance or employer may provide these days. In the case of gym memberships, they may foot the whole bill or at least at reduced rates. Check with your health and benefits administrator at the office.

If you’re an older adult, you should look at your Medicare Advantage plan and some Medicare Supplement Insurance plans. Many now include memberships to SilverSneakers or other similar programs as an added perk to beneficiaries. The plus side is that it’s usually free if it’s included in your Medicare plan.
