SilverSneakers: Your Medicare health and fitness benefits

Staying active as you age helps you maintain your health and well-being, stay strong, and keep your mind sharp. But beyond the physical and mental health benefits, staying active can also mean you’ll go to the doctor less, which saves you money.

The SilverSneakers program, included with most HealthPartners Medicare plans as one of our Medicare extras, helps you work toward your activity and fitness goals. Plus, it’s offered at no added cost to you.
