SilverSneakers Program Benefit through Aetna

Aetna understands that exercise and physical activity can help you maintain and even improve your health, so that is why they offer gym memberships and fitness classes through a program called SilverSneakers. This benefit can be used at home or at a fitness facility.

Examples of what a fitness facility offers include:

• Cardiovascular and strength training equipment
• Facility amenities such as saunas, pools and whirlpools  
• Exercise classes

There are also benefits if you’d rather meet your activity goals without leaving the house, which include:

• Follow along to on-demand videos
• Tailored workouts on the SilverSneakers GO™ mobile app
• SilverSneakers classes on Facebook Live

If there are no fitness facilities near you, you may be eligible for a home exercise kit which includes a DVD, instructions and any equipment you need. You also have access to classes, health tips and workouts online. Please visit SilverSneakers to see if you’re eligible.

A representative for Aetna can assist you with any questions you may have by calling 1-888-423-4632 Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. – 8 p.m.

Also, please remember to talk with your doctor before starting any new exercise programs.
