Wellness is better than any cure

When it comes to wellness programs, there is no shortage of support from the health insurers. According to CANSTAR CANNEX research, 45% of health insurers surveyed will cover gym membership if it is deemed medically necessary by a doctor.

51% of funds will cover a consultation with a nutritionist, while 63% will cover the membership costs of an eligible weight loss or quit smoking program. The idea is that by improving and maintaining the health of members, the cost of having those members can be reduced in the long run as they will hopefully require less medical treatment.

This proactive approach seems to be common across the industry, and it is worthwhile investigating what wellness programs you could benefit from. Apart from saving you money, they could turn your life around and get you into a healthier lifestyle pattern.
