Is this an insurance plan?

Visit one of the 850,000 physicians and other healthcare providers in our networks and save between 10-60% instantly.

How much will I save?
Members will only receive discounts by visiting one of the providers in our networks. There are many factors that will determine your savings. These factors include, but are not limited to, the procedure you are treated for, the state you reside in, and the provider you have selected. Our members can expect to save between 10-60% instantly on any visit to a provider in any of our networks.

How do I receive my discounts?
First, select a provider in one of the PrudentChoice™ affiliated provider networks.  Next, when you appear for your appointment, present your PrudentChoice™ member ship card.  You will receive your discount when you pay for your services.  There is no paperwork and no limits on using the program.

Is there a fee for service?
Yes, you will get the discounted rate and pay the provider directly at the time of service.

Can I join if I have work in progress?
Yes, because PrudentChoice™ is not health insurance you may join at any time. However, the work in progress must be completed by the treating doctor.

Do I have to wait before I can use my healthcare discount card?
No, once you receive your membership kit you will be ready to begin saving.

Can anyone in my household use my medical discount card?
Yes, PrudentChoice™ will include any member in your household as long as they are considered a dependent or spouse under IRS guidelines.

Do I pay the provider at time of service?
Yes, unless you have made other arrangements with your healthcare provider, all payments are due at time of service.

Can a member cancel at anytime?
Yes, simply contact Member Services to cancel at anytime. Your membership will terminate at the end of that month.

What will I pay when I visit a provider?
PrudentChoice™ is not insurance.  You pay for the provider services at the discounted rate, at the time of service.

Can I have a list of providers that are in the network?
PrudentChoice members receive a partial list of local providers in each of its affiliated networks in their initial member kit. Additional providers may be found by calling the affiliated network at the toll free number in the member kit.

Will I get a regular statement outlining my savings?
No. Because PrudentChoice is not insurance, and there are no administrative forms or paperwork to complete and submit to PrudentChoice, we will have no record of your healthcare appointments, treatment, or savings.

If I have to pay immediately for services, how do I know I am getting a discount?
Medical providers in our affiliated network have agreed to specific fee reductions for all medical procedures.

What happens if the network provider doesn’t know about the PrudentChoice health discount program?
You will still get your discount, even if the provider is not familiar with PrudentChoice. Since we use third party networks (such as the Private HealthCare Systems (PHCS) nationwide medical network), a particular provider may not know the PrudentChoice name, but as a networked provider for PHCS, the provider is obligated to give PrudentChoice members the agreed upon discounts.

Can I get your cancellation policy in writing?
Yes. The cancellation policy is clearly spelled out in the membership kit “Terms and Conditions.” Rest assured that you can cancel your PrudentChoice membership at any time and for any reason – there are no long term contracts or obligations!
