Many major medical plans include allowances that you can spend on anything that helps you pursue a healthier lifestyle. This includes such programs as smoking cessation, weight loss, and health club dues.

If you don't spend your wellness allowance, you might lose it at the end of your plan year.

Ask your employer or human resource department if your plan includes such allowances, how much they are, and what expenditures they reimburse.

Through the SimCo Fitness Store, we have partnered with leading companies to provide easy access to exercise equipment and nutritional products. Most wellness allowances can be used for these products.

SimCo has also partnered with the leading online personal training resource in the U.S. to give you professional workouts and healthy meal plans.
