Staying active is easier when your health plan helps cover the cost. Many UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plans include a fitness benefit as part of your UCard, giving you access to gym memberships, fitness classes, and wellness programs at participating locations — often at little or no additional cost to you.

## What the Fitness Benefit Includes

Your fitness benefit is designed to meet you where you are, whether you prefer a structured gym environment, group classes, or working out from the comfort of your own home. The benefit typically includes access to a national gym network through **Renew Active**, UnitedHealthcare's fitness program powered by AARP, along with memberships at participating gyms, YMCAs, fitness studios, and community centers. If you prefer to exercise at home, online fitness classes and digital workout videos are available to you as well. Some plans also include brain health activities, such as online cognitive exercises through a platform like AARP Staying Sharp.

## Frequently Asked Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I pay anything to use the gym?">
    Most participating gyms are covered in full by your fitness benefit, so you won't pay anything out of pocket at the door. Some premium locations may charge an additional monthly fee on top of your benefit. Check the gym finder tool for fee details at specific locations before you visit.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I use my fitness benefit for personal training?">
    Personal training sessions are generally not included as part of the standard fitness benefit. Your benefit is designed to cover gym access and group programming. Check your plan documents or contact member services for specifics about what is and isn't covered under your plan.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What if my gym isn't in the network?">
    If your preferred gym doesn't appear in the network, contact member services to ask whether it can be added as a participating location. You can also use the gym finder to search for a nearby in-network option that fits your routine.
