Grouper, the national leader in activity benefit administration, is thrilled to announce a partnership with Walk with a Doc, a global non-profit organization that encourages healthy living through regular walking events led by physicians and other healthcare providers. The collaboration between Grouper and Walk with a Doc aims to enhance the health of walkers by providing access to benefits that support staying active and engaged.

Guided by its mission of encouraging healthy living through meaningful social connections, Grouper connects its members to benefits that cover costs associated with group activities. By joining Grouper and staying active through walking, Walk with a Doc members who are 65 or older and have participating Medicare Advantage or Medicare Supplement plans can unlock the activity benefit offered by these plans and receive a check in the mail.

“Grouper is committed to bringing people together and encouraging them to stay active. Our partnership with Walk with a Doc reinforces that commitment,” said Doug Wenners, Grouper’s Chief Executive Officer. “Both organizations understand that social connection is about building high-quality relationships that enhance our lives. Together, we will encourage people to get outside and do what they love to do – walk.”

Grouper supports Walk with a Doc members who are eligible for the activity benefit by helping to offset participation costs associated with their walking activities. Members are then encouraged to remain active through walking so they can receive ongoing activity benefits.  

“We believe walking is medicine, and our partnership with Grouper provides an incredible opportunity for our community to stay healthy and connected,” said Dr. David Sabgir, Founder of Walk with a Doc. “Collaborating with Grouper is a wonderful way to support Walk with a Doc’s mission of inspiring communities through movement and conversation.”
