The proof of payment must indicate what was bought, how much it cost, and how it was paid for. This can be in the form of an itemized register receipt, bank statement, credit card bill, stamped bill, paid statement, or a cancelled check. We do not accept invoices, order / pick up confirmations, or shipping statements with no proof of payment. It is okay for you to use a gift card or gift certificate as the payment method, as long as the receipt indicates the payment method.
Yes! You receive the entire Wellness Wallet amount that is offered under your Generations Advantage plan even if you join the plan mid-year. As a reminder, dates for received services or purchased items must be within the current plan year in order to be reimbursed under that year's Wellness Wallet benefit.

If you place an order for an item, but payment is not taken until a later date, the date you placed the order is considered the date of purchase so long as your receipt shows the date you placed the order. For example, if you place an order for an item on 12/31 but payment is not taken from your account until 1/1, your purchase date would be considered 12/31 provided that your receipt lists the 12/31 order date.
A member can use credit card points or a gift card to purchase an item so long as the receipt shows the cash value of the item.
Members receive their notification of Wellness Wallet determination via their Explanation of Benefits. Denial reasons will be listed on the Explanation of Benefits. This means members will receive notification within 30 days after the claim is processed.
You can purchase equipment from any licensed retail establishment. We will not approve reimbursement for fitness equipment that has been purchased from a nonretail source (example: yard sale or Craigslist). The safety of our members is important and we want to ensure there is no risk of injury from noncertified equipment. If members are seeking to save on the costs or prefer to purchase second-hand equipment, there are a number of retailers—such as Play-it-Again Sports—that offer used equipment that has been checked for proper function and safety.
For annual memberships/fees/passes, reimbursements (up to your plan's Wellness Wallet amount) are limited to those purchased in 2024 and with dates of service beginning in 2024. Examples include gym, fitness, golf memberships, ski passes, sport club fees, etc.
No. However, we cover a number of items and services comparable to SilverSneakers. Classes, fees or memberships are eligible for reimbursement under your Generations Advantage plan Wellness Wallet benefit. See your individual plan page for your yearly reimbursement amount.
