Started in 1992, SilverSneakers(R) is an innovative exercise program specifically designed to meet Medicare beneficiaries' particular health and physical needs. Eligible members can enjoy specialized non-impact SilverSneakers(R) fitness classes taught by certified SilverSneakers(R) instructors. The classes focus on improving strength, flexibility, balance and coordination. Each participating location has a specially trained Senior Advisor(SM) to assist members in utilizing facility resources and classes. Additionally, SilverSneakers(R) members have access to any one of more than 2,800 participating locations across the country.
"We have continued to expand the SilverSneakers(R) program at TSI because of the overwhelmingly positive feedback and strong attendance," said Matt Daniel, TSI's Vice President of Business Development. "The senior adults that participate truly appreciate the chance to exercise in a safe and comfortable setting, and to make new friends along the way."
"Millions of older adults suffer from chronic illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes, colon cancer and high blood pressure. These can be prevented or improved through regular physical activity," said Healthways Senior Vice President Steve Lindstrom. "We are excited that through our continued partnership with TSI, we can reach even more older adults, giving them a convenient way to stay physically healthy and have fun."
SilverSneakers(R) is made available to more than three million Medicare-eligible seniors, at no additional cost, through partnerships with Medicare health insurance providers across the country. Members are encouraged to contact their health plan provider to find out if they offer SilverSneakers(R), or visit www.silversneakers.com for more information and a listing of all participating SilverSneakers(R) locations.
